Whether or not you can attend the concert, you might like to insert a message for Michael in the programme book.
This might be a personal thank-you or birthday greeting to Michael, or a memory from your time (or your children's time) with the BBCTO or BCYO, or an update on where your career has taken you.
Proceeds from this will go to Prostate Cancer Research.
Your message will cost 50p per word, with a minimum of 15 words.
You may include a thumbnail picture if you wish, at a cost of £3.
