Coffee Day at Algies Bay 17th February 2015

As with last year, another lovely day at Jan and Kevin Johnston's beautiful home for The North Shore Organ and Keyboard Club's Coffee Day. We had 30 attendees for a great lunch and then about the same number for a BBQ dinner. We had about 9 keyboards operational and lots of good music, good food, good camaraderie and fantastic weather! Thank you Jan and Kevin for sharing your lovely home and all the hard work preparing for the Coffee Day and making it go so smoothly.
