A full-size piano keyboard boasts 88 keys; that's a lot of potentially wrong notes just
sitting there waiting for their chance to betray the careless musician. At the 'Village
Inn' the other night the 'Piano Man' didn't hit any of them. He struck a great chord with
the housefull of happy Saturday- nighters who packed the bar and overflowed into the
street outside. Any space available was filled with dancers, singers and people who
liked to fill spaces that offered some good fun. It was a great night enjoyed by loads of
locals and visitors alike. Thanks, B; once again you have provided us with some
fantastic entertainment.
When you're a 'Mermaid' the world's your lobster.....
'The Unprofessional Mermaids' raised a few laughs, smiles and not a few shudders
with their sea shanties, parodies and stuff at the 'Ancient Mariner's cider festival last
weekend. The event was an incredible success with customers filling the terrace, the
road outside and the bar. Once again Sam and her team have really pulled out all the
stops to give us yet another great event! The whole day and evening was filled with
live music from every genre and gallons of the excellent cider helped keep everything
rolling along smoothly. However, alcohol alone doesn't make things happen; that
takes hard work, lots of time and a brilliant organiser’s brain.
