Mingle & Jingle: The Joy of Singing Together


Our "Mingle events" are opportunities for our community to share something simple yet powerful - time together. Mingle & Jingle is the Christmas edition of our beloved quarterly sing along event, Mingle & Sing. Now in its third year (and stronger than ever!), this heart-warming festive event spreads so much joy - and, of course, a healthy amount of percussion shaking.


As soon as the evening began, our Hilltop snug came alive with festivity and spirit. Voices rose, laughter filled the room, and following the annual welcome from Team PAUS, the evening unfolded with vibrant performances and our sing-along carols. When the first notes of Jingle Bells rang out, accompanied by tambourines and hand-held bells, we were instantly reminded of the moving presence of many voices becoming one.





Our Performers


As always, the event was made especially memorable by a lineup of local performers, each bringing their own festive magic.


Lively Aimee Hill opened the night and serenaded us with light-hearted songs on her ukulele, setting the tone of warmth and ease. Our devoted “Sofettes” delighted everyone with their performances of Let It Snow and other playful tunes, while the ladies of the Linton Belles Choir filled the snug with their stunning harmonies.


And, of course, no PAUS singing event would be complete without our very own Adam - the best singing, guitar-playing gardener in the country - who led the carols with his signature charm. He was joined by the wonderful and talented Phil and Emma, who married at PAUS earlier this year.





Singing for a Good Cause


Following the carols, the evening was rounded off with our Christmas raffle. Thanks to the generosity of our community and suppliers, the prizes were brilliant and eclectic - from hot air balloon rides in the Czech Republic, to magnums of Rathfinny sparkling wine - and obviously, there were also some very special PAUS Hilltop bathing passes on offer too...


The donations from the crowd raised £322 for Pomoc Psíkom Východ - an underfunded dog shelter on the Slovak–Ukrainian border. This cause is especially close to our hearts, as it’s where our beloved Chief Stress-Reliever, Ronko, comes from.


A Reminder of What Matters


Mingle & Jingle is more than an evening of festive songs, its a celebration. For a few winter hours, our Hilltop snug became a place where community, music, and kindness met — and that’s a feeling we’ll happily carry with us into the year ahead.


New dates for our quarterly Mingle & Sing will be announced soon (kicking off from March 2026!), so keep your eyes on our events page for updates soon.

I'll check the Mingle & Jingle title for tone clues — "Jingle" and "Mingle" suggest a warm, playful, festive vibe — so I'll write a comment matching that conversational, holiday-cheer tone. What a lovely snapshot of the Hilltop snug coming alive with voices and laughter! I'd love to see the percussion playlist from this year's jingle — check out https://3dtrellis.com

Reading about the Mingle & Jingle event is such a refreshing break, as the idea of social connection is a frequent daydream for me while navigating the intensive rigors of my current PhD research. Balancing my doctoral studies with a part-time role at last minute assignments has given me a front-row seat to the modern student experience, where the desire to participate in festive community gatherings often clashes with overwhelming deadlines and complex projects; having suffered through many high-stress hustles and sleepless nights during my own college days, I am now incredibly conscious of the mental toll that an unmanaged workload can take on one’s stability. This personal history is why I have such a genuine interest in supporting others…

This was a very well-explained and insightful article that left a strong impression. I appreciated how the author connected theoretical concepts like standard costing and marginal costing with real-life accounting scenarios. It shows how proper explanation can improve both understanding and confidence. As a cost accounting student, I often look for such blogs to stay motivated. When assignments become overwhelming, many learners consider Cost Accounting Assignment Help to better manage their academic responsibilities. Posts like this encourage continuous learning, accuracy, and application of cost accounting principles.
