This was also part of meke practice for the tribe in preparation for our performance at Doug’s wedding on Vorovoro the next day.

This all formed part of meke practice for the tribe in preparation for our meke at Doug's wedding on Vorovoro the next day. Not quite a full choir of singers, but the 3 or 4 Fijians who were there did a brilliant job anyway.
