Coffee Day 15th November 2010

What a great Coffee Day. Weather started dodgy but turned into a gorgeous day for us to enjoy the finger food lunch in the sun-soaked back courtyard. About 23 Club members enjoyed the day of good music, good company and good cuisine. With the choice of an acoustic piano, EL90 Electone organ, Yamaha PSR-710 keyboard and a Korg Pa1X keyboard there was every opportunity to express ourselves. A big thank you to Jack and Phyl Briscoe for opening up their lovely home to the Club members for a memorable Coffee Day.
