Just had to say a big big thank you for playing at my 70th Birthday Party on Friday night. You are simply the best group! I have had so many comments about the music and how much everyone enjoyed the night. So now we are all planning for December when we can all come down and all enjoy another brilliant night with all our fancy dress for Christmas, which I'm looking forward to already, and I'm sure everyone else is to. Keep up the good work! Love to you all.

As usual you were great last night. Was speaking to a member on Friday and told him if he wanted you guys for his party he would need to book you ASAP. Everyone has been asking when you’re back at the club, so I think it will be a good turn out for the next one.
