On Tuesday 23rd January 2018 Jean and I travelled to

Gloucester, where I was booked to play for the Gloucestershire

Keyboard and Organ Club.

I had played there previously in 2016 and this was a return visit.

It was a very enjoyable occasion for us and hopefully the members

enjoyed the evening. They were very generous in their applause.

It was good to see everyone again. We hopefully look forward to

the next time. The above picture was taken on that evening.

The above picture was taken on the same evening.

It looks like at this point I'm playing from music !!!

On Saturday 17th March 2018, Jean and I spent the day

visiting The Gloucestershire Warwickshire Steam railway.

It was a bitterly cold day with occasional sun and some

snow flurries. We made the return trip to Cheltenham

Race Course, stopping off at Winchcombe.

In the above picture, taken at Toddington Station, Jean is

" Envloped in Steam " from the locomotive, a Bulleid Pacific

of the Nerchant Navy Class No 35006 named

Peninsular & Oriental S.N. Co.

A really enjoyable day!!

Rather interestingly, we were originally booked to go to

the Royal Naval Association Club at Leamington Spa on this

day, but due to it's unfortunate closure we had the day free.

A shame it had to close! Jean and I were always made very

welcome there.

On the the evening of February 10th 2018 Jean and I

were welcomed back to The Silvester Horne Institute,

Church Stretton, Shropshire, a very attractive venue!

The dance was well attended by a really friendly

crowd.

The above picture was taken during the evening,

where I am playing for the dancers.

Monday 15th January 2018 saw us at Bedworth Liberal Club

for the " Solo Club Dance ".

I always enjoy playing at this venue and the members really

love to dance.

The above picture was taken on that evening.

On the evening of Monday 18th December 2017,

Shelfield Male Voice Choir gave a Carol Concert

at Shelfield Methodist Church, Lichfield Road.

The evening was well attended by a very appreciative

congregation.

The choir, along with their conductor and accompanist,

were in fine form.

I was invited to play the organ and Jean and I thoroughly

enjoyed the evening.

The above picture was taken at the end of the evening

and is reproduced and published here by kind permission

of "Codsall Photographic".

Shelfield Male Voice Choir is a supporter of charities and

to date, has raised many thousands of pounds.

The Choir meets at 7-30pm every Monday evening at

Shelfeild Methodist Church, Lichfield Road, WS4 1PU.

New members are always welcome, so just come along!

Jean and I were invited back to Tipton for a Christmas Lunch

and Dance Party on Friday 15th December.

We had a fabulous Christmas Dinner and I played music

afterwards and we really had a great time.

The above picture shows Jean posing for the camera.

Now it was my turn to pose for the camera ! ! !
