Thanks very much for that really kind comment, Jon.... and to take up Jon's theme, the family gave us a really wonderful evening to start our new season singing to a capacity crowd.

By limiting floor spots to one item each, we managed to put on eleven of the many performers who turned up to support us - but there were at least eleven more who didn't get a chance to go on.

I've put up a photo of the seven singing Coppers taken last night on the Facebook page of the Royal Oak Lewes and as the evening evoked so much of the memory of Bob Copper, I've also put up one of the last occasion that Bob was with us, which was the evening when we celebrated his 89th birthday in January 2004. (I think you have to be a "friend" of the Royal Oak Lewes to see them - but you are welcome to apply....)

Next Thursday promises another fine evening with Pete Coe:-

Sept 10th * £6.00 * PETE COE
One of the top names on the scene. A fine singer and multi-instrumentalist. He will even stepdance as he plays!
