Just how much fun was that?  What a great afternoon, we thouroughly enjoyed ourselves and hope you did too.  Thanks to all those who came to see us and to our friends Rob Alliott and Everything But The Bass who helped everything run smoothly.  We even managed to raise a few pounds to go into the scanner appeal for the hospital.  See you next time!
