Post by: Doug Thompson on Aug 31, 2023, 08:50 AM
Last chance to make a suggestion for things to do at this year's party,
Do we have any musicians willing to perform a song or two, only a week to go.

Hi, sorry we haven't been about to help set up. But, we intend to be there on Saturday :-) I haven't got round to donating online, so will throw in some cash if possible for the weekend!

Big thank you to Doug & Co. for organising and hosting yet another mega-fest.

The amount of work, time, trouble and cash that goes into it every year cannot be under-estimated.

Thank you  :)

Ian & Helen

Just about recovered from Saturday, had a awesome night.
Thanks Doug and everyone else who was involved  in setting up this fantastic night.
Sorry if we kept people awake whilst some of us partied into the early hours of the morning.

Thanks again Doug for hoisting another great event
