We are not playing many gigs at the moment, but we were delighted to return to the local park of Annie, our trombone player, and Mark, our drummer for the Picnic in the Park.

It was great to welcome Simon and Barry on saxes who have both played on our recent gigs (including a civil partnership we didn’t write up here).

It was very hot, but we kept our fluid intake up and played two full sets.

We had a great time yesterday afternoon playing for an end of term party for staff of a west London school.

None of us have ever been asked to such an occasion before but it was a lot of fun, with much dancing and perhaps the best sing-alongs we have ever had.

And Ian, our guest tenor sax player, still had time to get to another two gigs that evening.

This is what we played.
