Sole Bay in the snow!

Last evening at the Sports Pavilion Ditchingham The Sole Bay Jazz Band and friends came along to play for an amazing amount of fans,  considering the weather, so I would like to thank everyone, especially those who had to come a long way just hope everyone got home safely. Thanks Jan for getting us home through that horrible blinding snow and wind. Very icy this morning as well so stay safe.

So good to see Sheila, Kim and Simon managing to get there, and of course great vocals Simon thank you. A lot of folk were full of coughs and colds but music is a great healer, so hope they all managed to enjoy it all. There is such a good feeling hearing music with people who love it, we are so lucky to not only have the Sole Bay to play for us but also such good friends there.

Great music all the evening lots of solos and great drumming as always Craig, Piano magic from Ray, Alan on guitar and banjo, Tony on that big bass, Bill so mellow on that trombone, Derek still good after all the years, and Tim lots of great playing, and smiles all round which makes it a pleasure to watch you all having fun. Chris came along and gave us a couple of songs at the end of the evening naughty Derek making him laugh, but it was so good to see and it made us all laugh as well.

Thanks to people who gave me more prizes for the raffle, all helps, and being so generous with buying the tickets, it was a great idea of Keith's all those years ago, as with what we receive from Jon it helps Alan to find these good musicians so we can have a lovely night of music.

Heidi as always with her lovely smiles, thanks also for all my hugs, so nice to have such good friends.

A few photos for you…Do not worry Duncan and Don did not put those naughty ones on!
