Yes we were down in Poole, filling in for a band unable to turn up. What an excellent afternoon it turned out to be as well! I guess the rain kept more people IN the bar than outside – Thanks to the Lord Nelson for getting in touch!

However – we did have to push off as soon as possible to get to Lyme Regis and the Royal Standard. Fog dropped down on us at Askers – only to be expected I guess!! However we got there and set up – what a great little venue!! We did have to strip down the gear a bit to fit in but the response was excellent! Thanks to Jess and the folks for a great evening.

• 10th – Golden Lion – first one here and an excellent place to play!
• Following day, Sunday, Nelsons down on Poole Quay. I would think that was around the time that summer officially ended!! It was a wonderful summer day and loads of people out enjoying the sun!
• 18th – Beehive in Bridport – private party and what another great night! Best wishes to the young man who threw the party – I believe he’s off round the world?? Or did I get that wrong?
• 24th – Exmouth at the York Inn – well this place never fails!! Party night was all you can say. The roving mike is a bit of a hit with all who like to excercise the vocals and several ladies came up to sing as well!!
• 25th – The Excise House in Weymouth….a cracking venue. Bit quiet this time out, but maybe that was the time of the month? Never the less always a great place to play.
• 30th – Nelsons Ale House, Blandford – this is a place that is great to play. Paul is great to the band and always gets a dedication!!

All in all and excellent month! Many thanks to all venues…see you again soon.
