    The 2020 Guru awards

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 31/01/2020

    » We know it's the last day of January -- and if you weren't aware, it's February tomorrow -- but as a tweet said, we'll consider January the free-trial period and start 2020 properly on the first day of February.

    » The phone number was not one I knew, but still I took the call. "This is immigration police … we'd like to make a time to see you."

While the King's College Chapel Choir is the best known of the Oxford and Cambridge College Choirs, it is generally unknown that virtually all of the nearly 70 colleges have their own choir.
