Friends night.

This Thursday at The Buck we had "Roy and Friends" playing for us, and what a great night, thank you lads you did us proud..

Roy and Ian always play well together and Barry on the keyboard, what a good voice he has, we had a lot of different music, with backing from a couple of the Sole Bay ..Tony on the bass, and Neil on drums..

A nice grin from Neil, and Ian giving us some great music, everyone played so well together, and some people who had not heard Barry, Ian and Roy play really enjoyed the mix of music.

Barry ..I did as you asked and put the unsmiling one up of you, do not want to ruin your reputation..ha ha.

Another smile from Dave who gave us a few numbers on the drums.

One of Tony who always hides in the back but who has a magic touch with the bass...

Thank you Roy for taking me and Stella, lovely to see so many fans there. Colin and Duncan thanks you know what for..!!

Now this was a sad night in a way, because the landlord has decided to have a 2 week break from the Sole Bay at the Buck , which means we either have to go without our jazz for two weeks or find somewhere else to meet up and enjoy the music...So hope we have lots of people looking in on here so they know what is going on. and hopefully I will be able to tell you when and where the Sole Bay will be playing again...

I did try to get him to change his mind as we have been there for nearly 3 years after losing the venue at the Tally Ho where the Sole Bay had played for nearly 25 years...

I hope he will miss us all and have us back soon...We have such a great crowd of jazz lovers, and I am sure we will miss our Thursday nights. hopefully for a short time.

Lovely to see some of the swing dancers there, and hope you enjoyed your Happy Birthday we all sang to you Haley..

Good news that Sheila our dear friend is doing well and getting better everyday..

Keep smiling ...just wish I still had my "pub" I would welcome you all with open arms.

See you all soon watch this space..
