Morning Jazzers…

 Good morning to all the Jazzers, where were some of you last evening??? I know I have missed a lot of good evenings over the past few years, but hopefully those missing last night were not ill, and if they were we wish them all a speedy recovery. I know how good it is to be back in the jazz family again. Thanks to the folk who get me there and back!

It was a great line up with the super talented musicians who gave us a sparkling evening, so thanks to all. Everyone sounded so good, and not only Barry giving us some vocals, Gary sang as well. 

Thanks to Clover and Christine for the raffle and Fudge for her cheerful part in it and of course the photos. Kerry great job behind the bar. Looking forward to the videos Tony …

Great Jazz Night…

 Well that was a really special night of Jazz from the Sole Bay Jazz Gentlemen at Ditchingham last evening.

Always these musicians entertain with their music, maybe last evening it seemed go down really well for so many of us, it was a real tap your feet evening, so thanks to these great musicians …And of course to Barry, who entertains us so well with his vocals…

Sadly some of the gang were not there, as illness prevented them, but they know who they are and I know they look in, so wishing you all well, and come back soon. I feel especially for them as know how they love the jazz evenings, I have missed so much from Covid onwards, and everyone has welcomed me back into the fold, and it is so good of you all. Thanks for the hugs and chats, and for looking in on this blog.

Also of course to the lovely people who make sure I can get there and home again, appreciate you all.

Great work by Kerry behind the bar, always smiling, Clover and Christine for the raffle,  and Fudge coming into her own making the raffle more fun…

Thank goodness Tony will be popping the videos up so folk can catch up. Also Fudge has done another great job this week with the photos…
