Grey Uke Book (orange on the cover) refers to The Ukulele Club Song Book! These large volumes are available to buy at Crossroads Music, 32 Skipton St, Ballarat Central, or online, but please, we ask you to support the local businesses. (There is also Grey Uke Book 2 (green) which is not used as much, but you can still own it if you want to!).
Other Stuff - Random!
Random or Miscellaneous should be on this web site - https://ballaratukulelegroup.org/resources#finding-miscellaneous
If other people have sheets that they bring along, and they don't go through the process of emailing a copy to our Musical Director, Jeannie - we may not have an electronic copy to refer you to! - email us to ask if it can be found.

Other Online Resources:
* the Richard G website http://www.scorpexuke.com/
* link to find the latest version of the Jim Carey ukulele songbook
(All the main downloads are kept on the "Resources to Download" tab.)
Look at the "Songs by Name" on Resources, and see that there are three files with 1_ keeping them alphabetically at the top.
The 2019 BIG BUG BOOK and other books are not in the sets, download them directly.
One has an auto index included (for Tablets), and the other is for printing.
All the versions of songs we are using are in these books, and the rest are "other" or "miscellaneous". Old books, like Uke-a-billy or other themed nights can be found either under the "Books" tab, or look under the History tab - List of Songs 2015-2018
One big file of all the "current songs" ALL_random_songs_pdf.zip [54.21 MB] [2020-01-22], and you will need to firstly, download it, and secondly "unzip" them on to your device with an application.
Windows users - 7zip is the one I use! Free, safe, open source software.
MAC/iPad - iZip, or Documents by Readdle App. Also, Instructions for Unzipping using Documents by Readdle
- if you are using iBooks, you will need an "Unzipping" app - eg iZip or Winzip
To get all the latest PDF songs, look at the date of ALL_random_songs_pdf.zip - this is when Jill last tidied up.
This are made by hand, periodically, so might not contain every PDF.
You can see all PDFs in date order, all the ones above the ALL_random_songs_pdf.zip are not in that zip, and you can download them one by one.
