It was indeed a superb evening. From where I was sitting at the side of the stage, it was a joy to see the looks on the faces of the audience.

It didn't stop when the club finished. Some of the Young Coppers were singing on the pavement outside till nearly midnight in comepetition with one of the bonfire societies who seemed to be holding a small procession inside the Arms.
