Thank you Letter from Family Support Clacton (2)
"Just a quick line to say thanks to Graham and all the others who helped put together Sunday's concert.Everyone from our family who went enjoyed it (including the performer!). A good selection of music that was entirely appropriate for the audience.
I think the vocal items were a plus and I look forward especially to "Blue Moon" later in the year (Cybil Sheppard did a big band version of the song in an episode of Moonlighting years ago).
Thanks once again for all the hard work and effort that goes into organising such an event."
