This post is number one in a series to do Xmas this year by employing the "Spend more time than money" campaign.
I have been lucky enough to have caught a repeat of this story's first episode and went back tonight and watched the last one [3rd]. It is an amazing story of a very emotionally evocative group of military wives who become a choir created by Gareth Malone.

And their confidence grows... http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b017kcj3/The_Choir_Military_Wives_Episode_2/
Then they are given the opportunity to singe before the royal family at the Royal Albert Hall with a song Gareth Malone had written for them:
If you do have few minutes to watch these episodes, I recommend it. If you like it share with everyone you know.

The profits of the single will go towards several military charities, so if you purchase a copy for yourself or someone else the money will be going to a good cause.
