Coffee Day 16th November 2009

What a great Coffee Day! With 22 members enjoying the hospitality of Rob and Barbara Powell at their lovely Henderson home. It must be a record as we had 3 keyboards brought along to augment the resident Clavinova, Tyros 3 keyboard and Electone EL15 organ! fantastically talented members, great food, good conversation and clement weather - what more could one ask for on Coffee Day. We were pleased to welcome new Club members, Joy Eade, who soon felt at home as she got stuck into the lovely Clavinova. Joy plays a large repertoire from memory. It was really stimulating listening to five keyboard being played together, especially the Christmas carols. Thank you Rob and Barbara for opening your home for us and making it such a great day for one and all.
