I know all my blogger friends will be like me so shocked to hear about all the Paris shootings.
So a little prayer that all will calm down and all those poor people will find peace, although how they can be after that I do not know, however if all the red white and blue showing everywhere in sympathy I hope that the Paris people know we are all thinking of them…
We have had enough wars, especially something like this when innocent people who have done no harm are targeted by suicide bombers, Life is precious, pity they do not know that.

Sole Bay Jazz Band
Another different night at the Sports Pavilion Ditchingham, in more ways than one!
Good band, nice lot of musical magic, and some laughs…
Different as well as it seems all the tables and people seemed to have changed the room around, really strange, so the coven table had to move to the back, and we had several new folk coming along, Sheila was not there, so I took her seat to be near the raffle, actually nice to see the band instead of viewing the post from the side! so some of my lovely friends came and sat with me, where we proceeded to apparently upset the band, in the nicest way of course.
So a nice lots of laughs, but do hope we can get back to the normal seating next week as it did seems really weird. Know you will be pleased Fudge ha ha…
Thanks Clover for helping with the raffle, she has agreed to take that on when I am unable to be there, thanks to all the raffle ticket folding! Nice prizes and thanks to those who help with goodies each week, building up for a good raffle at Christmas gig…so good to have a nice selection of people winning, thanks to everyone for digging deep as I say every week, without your help and Jon the band would not have such a nice venue to play each week, with talented musicians.
Lovely Heidi always smiling behind the bar! not sure if I said goodnight sorry…
Nice to see some fans returning after holidays and work, but also sad that some of the fans will no longer be with us only in spirit… some fans are unwell, so wishing all good health and they can return to enjoy the live music.
A few photos… bit strange colour this week sorry…thanks Sole Bay for another night of live music…thanks also to Geoff who gave us a tune on the harmonica…

Bereavement
I have been asked to let you all know that sadly we have lost another great jazz fan.
John Garrard has lost his fight from his illness this week, I feel we are all thinking of dear Marian and her family who have helped her husband through this.
John has been such a great fan of the Sole Bay Jazz Band (who send their regards to Marian) for many years, and of course other bands, we will all miss him.
Always a smile for me and a chat, what a lovely man, rest in peace dear John.
Sadly now we are all getting older this will happen, but seems so close to us, especially after the loss of Keith dear husband of Sheila a few weeks ago. So many of our dear friends have passed and some still ill and unable to come to jazz, but they are always in our thoughts, I am sure you agree.
But I am also sure like all of us who have lost loved ones, Marian will soldier on and hopefully return to jazz as soon as she is able.
No doubt Marian will let me know when the funeral is and we can go and pay our respects to this lovely man.
