Hi, I'm Kim Smith I am thirty something and live in Griffithstown with my two sons, Sam 10 and Thomas 6, where i have lived all my life.

I orignally started singing in Pontypool Girls Grammar school where i joined the school choir in the contralto section. Two of the highlights were singing at the National Eisteddford at Llangollen and in 1985 personally wining Chorister Of The Year.

After leaving school, at the time i was unware that there were local choirs and groups that i could join and it wasn't until some years later that i saw a local ladies choir advertising for new members and in 1992 i joined Betty Eyles Singers. Although I didn't know her at the time, the same day as Tina joined, fate I guess.

Although I enjoyed singing and the structure of the Betty Eyles Singers for many years, when the six of us got together it was just a lot more fun, despite our varied ages.
