This Weeks:
We began with a concert for the Epsom & Banstead Club for the Partially Sighted – lovely people we hadn’t been able to visit for nearly three years. They gave us a happy and warm welcome and thoroughly enjoyed the music and good chat, teas and wonderful home-made cakes that followed.
The week closed with a private party – a 60th wedding anniversary – at the Memorial Hall in the South Downs Centre, Midhurst. We provided music for a ceilidh along with a Dance Caller. Everyone joined in the fun; all ages from 2+ to 80+. It’s a great venue for gigs and concerts: good facilities, kitchen, stage, parking and more besides.
