Sunrise
There are a lot of night walking cats in the neighbourhood since new folk moved this way and they are not very nice, as my cat is rather old they like to come and fight him, so have to keep the cat flap locked at night, and get a nudge when nature calls to let him out!! mmm half asleep at about 4am soon got the camera out as the sky was worth getting up to see…

Sole Bay Jazz Band…
What a great night of live music at the Sports Pavilion Ditchingham last evening…
Our super line up entertained us with some real mood music, and it was very very enjoyable by the applause and whistles that went on.
Thank you to our six talented musicians who entertained a lovely large crowd of fans, it was great…
Some fun as well always a pleasure to see the band enjoying themselves as well as us…Also some wonderful duets on the clarinets and saxophones from Tim and Ron, as always fingers Ray on the Piano, and our intrepid three backing boys who keep the beat going. How lucky are we…
Thanks for digging deep as usual for the raffle, seems to provide a nice interlude, and nice that the prizes get spread around, also as always thanks to my lovely raffle ticket folders, and of course our furniture removal ladies that set the hall up for us… We are so lucky to have our little Club of fans that come every week to support the musicians.
Thanks Heidi hope you have a good holiday we will miss you, but expect Jon will have found us someone to cater for the thirsty crowd… Also Fudge and Jess who are off to Scout Camp, mmm that sounds good!!!
So good to see some of our rather ill fans turning up …we all wish them well and long may they come along … big hugs Don loved your choice of requests as always…maybe soon Simon will be recovered enough to come and sing again wishing him all the very best from all of us and keep fighting Simon. Love to Sheila as well what a lot our lovely Denny family have had of late, but hoping soon things will start to improve …miss you…
A few photos of our talented six…Really should try a bit harder to concentrate on taking photos am too busy moving to the music beat, note to self …must try harder…

A fun time with Dixie Mix Audience participation…
DIXIE MIX…
A great night of live music from Dixie Mix at the Pavilion Southwold…A summer show as well as the winter one how great. Lovely views and a beautiful sunny summers night with the doors open to the air how lovely!
What energy and fun these lads have …all ages and always smiling and making the audience enjoy every minute of their playing and singing, wonderful talent and a good crowd as always at the Pavilion, well done Keith for again providing us with a lovely evening out, always pleasant staff and good food …great bar… lovely to meet up with friends as well.
Thanks Jan for taking us all nice to get lost on the way home again ha ha…
Some of the photos are not great because I was not close enough some times for my little camera but glad managed to creep to the front and get a photo of them all in the end.
I did a couple of bits of videos hopefully to show Pete's relation as she could not come with us, so if any good may even pop on here.
But thanks to one and all… no wonder you have so many people want to hear you play, talented and great fun … roll on the next one.

Roys band at the Pavilion…
Last evening at The Sports Pavilion Ditchingham, Roy and his band of merry men played for us while the Sole Bay had a break…
Well done to you all, so sorry not many people came along to support the band, however those who did I hope enjoyed something different.
Thank you everyone who did come to the live music and dug deep for the raffle, also those who helped me by bringing some gifts much appreciated. Of course thanks to my raffle folders as always. and for our ladies who get the room set up. Heidi smiling as always, after her day of being a Mum with children that changed schools, it is hard when they grow so fast isn't it Heidi.
We had some different music last night, a mixture of jazz blues etc…and a lot of singers! Lovely to see Jenny being brave and stepping up, and apart from the band who nearly all sang, a young lady called Hannah came along and sang as well. I did not feel there was so much fun and Romping Roy between the band as there usually is but it was hot …but still some great playing, so well done to all.
A few photos, and Barry let me have your e mail so I can send the photos, still not as good as the one I took before! but the hat is different!!!! Also Fudge took a good photo will pop it on if she sends it to me.
Next week we should have The Sole Bay Jazz Band back so please come along and support the live music, as you know if you don't you will lose it.

Jazz Friends…
I just want to put a little tribute on here… to say how wonderful the world of jazz is!
Our dear friend Peter Parr sadly departed this earth and Tuesday afternoon his family and some jazz friends went to say farewell to him.
Some of the Sole Bay gentlemen played him into the crematorium with "When the Saints go marching in" Just hope he was looking down and enjoying it as he had loved his jazz for over 40 years.
A different type of funeral more a thanksgiving for Peters life. Some nice words spoken so we all remembered Peter with a smile because he had a great life. with two songs from his favourite singer Lesley as well.
Thanks to one and all …the family and friends… the wake with the Sole Bay playing some wonderful music also thanks to the family who provided some refreshments for us, on such a boiling hot day…Also for those photographs that were shown around we all had some great memories…
Thank you Roy for taking us so we did not get lost!
Happy days Peter you will be sadly missed by us all…And of course so will the blue tit… unless you took it with you as it no longer taps on the window? those who knew Peter will know what I am talking about…
