Sole Bay Jazz Band Plus!

Yet another great and different night of jazz at the 'Pavilion Ditchingham' last night…

A bit of a squeeze in the car park, as a football match going on, well it is a sports club! but glad a good crowd did manage to park…

Whilst on the subject of the Club, could as many people as possible get the EDP Newspaper Saturday as in it will be a form, as they are in for some lottery money if they are successful… to put an all weather Cricket Pitch plus some changing rooms etc… Jon and Marilyn work hard to make it a great place, a lot of you did fill in a form the other night, but I believe this is for the actual grant, fingers crossed…

As for our Jazz night, what a lovely lot of music and fun, so thanks folks…

Great line up nice brown legs Derek…

Tony joined in with some vocals, also a guitar duo with Kevin…

Roy gave us some upbeat singing!

We heard some great talent, a good blend, and next week should be a blast as well!!! keep looking in!

Also  Peter Elliott sat in to give Craig a break on the drums for a couple of numbers…
Thanks Emma for a good job keeping everyone in order at the bar!

Picnic in the Park…

Today at Somerleyton Gardens,  the 'Bank Holiday Picnic in the Park' took place …

So off Jan and I went with our picnic, and met with Liz James and Max for a great afternoon of family fun, a nice picnic with some Jazz from …not the Sole Bay this year …but a few gentlemen who have formed a nice little jazz band with the name I believe is "Tuba Swingy" well that is what they told me!

Always a pleasure to visit `Somerleyton Garden as it brings good memories back…

The front garden!

Lovely building

More Peregrine photos via Skip!

Thanks Skip for loaning me these I know a lot of my blog readers are pleased to know how successful the Peregrines have been again…I may have spoilt them by trying to get them bigger, but hope not…

This one Skip said the Peregrine was preening and the feather proved to be fascinating!

And this is Hawk eye camera!

Such great photos these gentlemen have produced this year, how very patient they have been, as they took a lot of shots to get the results they have provided for us all…

Must say again how great the Hawk and Owl Trust forum is, such a great crowd of very nice people, so thanks folks…Nice to have been a part of it all…

Jazz with a happy face……
