Coffee Day with the Watts 21st September 2009

Another great Coffee Day with 26 members turning-up for a fantastic variety of music styles and techniques - such talent in the Club! A big thank you to Colin Crann for bringing along his Yamaha DGX620 digital piano together with Des Rouse who brought along his Yamaha PSR3000 keyboard. Gordon Sutherland brought his Korg Pa1X along so that with George and Jean Watt's lovely GA3 organ and acoustic piano downstairs we were well covered for choice of instrument to play! A very big thank you to George and Jean Watt for all their hard work preparing to host the Club and also to Delyse Whorwood for helping with kitchen duties together with members who lent a hand in the 'galley'.
