Another Jazz post!

No camera this week! but had to write a little to say thank you for the company last night.

It does seem to be mainly jazz on here at the moment, so not much else going on, but I know some of my Alistair friends look in, so will try and find something else as well to chat about soon! I have been trying to get the garden in order, and have not been out a lot apart from jazz, which as usual yet another great night in the company of the Southwold Sole Jazz Band.

The line up, our main core, Tim on his reeds, Alan banjo and guitar,Tony on his lovely double bass,Neil on the drums, and we had guests Trummy Mayhew on his talking Trombone, honestly that man certainly can bring it to life, and Simon Nelson who brings all us ladies to life with his singing and trumpet playing.

Always because of the mix, every week is different, and we also had a happy birthday for Don one of the regulars.

As always such a great crowd, did notice a few new ones coming in, and some of our regulars not in, as expect it is holiday time for some, but still a good crowd to ensure that the band get a good response.

Our Heather was not well so wish you better Heather she works so hard and we do enjoy seeing her on a Thursday night, but Emily helped, and Simon smiling as usual, so still Phil (our landlord) had to forego his night off, but as the lads played his favourite Isle of Capri he enjoyed himself...

Thanks also for the good company of Colin and Duncan, Ivan also for taking Linda ,Stella and me, and Tracy what a great prawn salad we had, never had such a lovely display on a plate, very tasty thank you for indulging us without it being on the menu.

It was tinged with some sadness however as we lost another wonderful fan, I know his wife does not want anything written to her, but I feel I must say from all of us on here how sad we are that our dear friend has passed on, and hope like all the others he will be watching on a Thursday night from above. we miss you.

Lovely as well to see our usual crowd in the 'back room', you know who you are, such nice people it is a pleasure to know you all and you make me so welcome when we have our half time chat.

Thanks again to you all, great night, hope to see you all next week, as usual Neil will have the news on his Southwold Jazz site.
