Barry Mason songwriter and Farah Mitchell and Hester Thompson
Not many knew what to expect when they gamely agreed to buy tickets for this concert in the Civic promoted by Rupert The Mayor of Longridge Productions! Debbie Watsons' Uncle Barry is a prolific songwriter and gets out and about occasionally for charity and we had the good fortune to secure Barry and his mate Don Gould (of the Applejacks) to entertain about 130 of us in aid of my charities.
Farah and Hester had the honour of sharing his stage to perform for us and the St Cecililia's Catering and Hospitality GCSE course did a brilliant job with canapes before the performance and at half time.
Trudi and Craig Burgess of Clearwater Music were brilliant supplying the PA and also looking after the mixing during the gig. Special thanks to Trudi for looking after the girls too.
Many thanks to all and especially to concert sponsors Debbie Watson, Des Draper, Helen Cartmell of Serendipity Floral Design, Wm Houghton Funeral Directors. My gorgeous mayoress was brilliant as ever too and put up with my typical last minute decision making and massive ego on the night when I bounced around like Tigger lapping up the limelight! We made just over £1,000 on the night and had huge fun too.
Farah, Lisa from OJs, Barry and Julie from OJs.
If anyone else has any photos I'd love to publish more on here!!!
