Southwold

A little view of sizewell dome in the distance with the rays of sun…

A very nice little trip out yesterday to Southwold, Jan decided a breathe of sea air would do me good after being stuck indoors for a week…

She was right a nice little walk…then some great soup and bread at Adnams and it blew the cobwebs away…

One step at a time, but at last can see the back of this cough and cold…

COOL BLUE…Sunday 6th

Cool Blue will be playing at the Butcher's Arms Public House this Sunday lunch time …

Always  a good mix of Live Music for your enjoyment…

No one been in touch about who is playing, so guess it is the usual good line up.

time now 18.55

I have just received a call from Les, his wife June apparently had an accident at the gig, and was hurt badly, but he would like me to say she is now out of hospital and resting her bruises …and has been assured all will be well, but I imagine she will be sore for a while yet.

Les would like me to say a big thank you to Lin and all the others who helped June.

So we are all sending you best wishes June and knowing you this will not set you back too much, but sending hugs and all love from me and all the folk who look in here.

Here I am!!

Well I do hope you all missed me? ah well never mind………

Had developed a rotten head cold which left me with a cough as well, so no jazz for me last Thursday, but hear it went well. Thanks Jazz Jan and Sandy for doing the raffle… Now waiting to hear from Alan to see who is playing this week.

In the meantime, last Sunday a great lunchtime of Jazz at the Conservative Club…as I have mentioned in the posts below, David is at the moment putting the videos on u tube, the only problem I can tell at the moment is that u tube has got a wide screen and when he panned in it has cut some heads off, but the music certainly is worth a listen to. I will put the links up as soon as I get them from him.

The weather is glorious today, so hope I can get this thick head outside and enjoy a bit of fresh air.

Hope everyone has a good day…
