Bispham Rock Gardens Saturday June 15th 2024
Flaming June and it poured down!! Never mind - we performed to a large crowd for the Friends of the Rock Gardens and played really well. Mr Bradford insisted the sun was about to come out and it did - but only after we had finished playing! Not to worry though - we really enjoyed ourselves.
