On to London The group had planned to spend three months in Australia, but they were so successful that they were there for fourteen months. Then the Hi-Fives took the decisive step of moving on to London. Once more all went well for them; only two days after they had landed in England, they had an engagement to perform at London's Embassy Club. It was at this stage that Mary Nimmo joined the Hi-Fives. Mary, who is from Levin, had always been very interested in singing, and was a keen musician. She had never thought seriously of a career on the stage, however, until she was engaged to sing with a band in Surfers Paradise during a holiday in Australia. It was shortly after this that she was offered the position as vocalist with the Hi-Fives, who were then in the position as vocalist with the Hi-Fives, who were then in London. A few hours later, she had packed her bags and was on a plane to London.
