As usual, the Band is very busy over the festive season, with twelve engagements in the diary.
First up, is Furness Vale Christmas Tree Lights on Friday 24th November. A fine, dry night but cold. A few carols outside for starters, then into the warmth of the Church Hall for some more.

On to Saturday and a double bill. Kettleshulme Fayre at lunch time, where it's always a pleasure to play in our band room for the Kettleshulme crowd.
Then home for a brew and put on more clothes ready for the start of Christmas in Whaley Bridge, where the forecast for a crisp but very cold evening was spot on. Although we well needed our extra layers when playing outside as the tree was lit up.....
....... but way over dressed for the market in the Mechanics afterwards.
Time to strip down to Christmas Jumpers.

.Band's day off on Sunday, then on to Chinley on Monday evening. The road was closed to traffic at Squirrel Green for the lighting of the tree, and just as well as there was huge crowd. Then round the corner into St Mary's Church for more Christmas celebrations, rounded off by the The Twelve Days of Christmas Chinley Style, lead by Minister Foday with his usual enthusiasm.
