Dear Friends,well. that’s summer over and you might well ask ‘...what summer’? But really, if we think back, we had some good weather earlier in the year, amazing how you forget, hey. And we certainly had a lot of good Country Music at various events, and of course at the clubs...and a lot still to come around the clubs.
I have been given and a few CDs, but I am so sorry to say that I completely ran out of space to give them a mention...but will do that in the next issue, promise!
We had the recently resurrected ‘Buzzard Creek’ at our club a couple of weeks back, what a great night they gave us.
Talking about our club, last year we had an incident, when a speaker fell during set-up and hit a lady on the head. She wasn’t hurt, even refused to go to doc or hospital. Now she is trying to sue us, the venue...everything in sight. We’ll get through this, but it brought home that we need to be a lot more conscientious about liability insurance, and I’d advise any club to look into that with their venue and bands. Would hate to see anybody else going through this.
We had a great night at the Family Fundraiser event in memory of Archie Paton. The absolutely fantastic sum of £2300 was raised...and everyone had a great night, just the way Archie would have liked it. There have been thoughts about making it an annual event, would be really nice.
We are very near at the end of Festival season, for us its just Craig Tara to come now, can’t wait and we are looking forward to seeing everyone there. Going by what people are saying, its been a great season, even with the high prices of petrol/diesel. Lets hope it will ease soon, so that we can look forward to another good season next year.
Last, but certainly not least, I would like to wish my hubby Danny a very happy Birthday on October 16th, and a happy day for our Wedding Anniversary on October 17th.
Luv U lots!
