Coffee Day with the Waddel's 15th June 2009

22 Club Members enjoyed a great day at Dorothy and Trevor Waddel's home. Lots of instruments to choose from with a Clavinova CVP-208; Hammond Organ; acoustic piano;   Yamaha DGX620 88 weighted key ensemble piano; and a Korg Pa1X keyboard brought along by Skip Eade. The weather was unkind with rain but we were cosy warm inside and enjoying a great variety of music and styles of play. Thanks Dorothy and Trevor for hosting our Club and making it such a special day.
