Testimonials
| Wedding | I was so busy trying to talk to our many guests at our wedding at Broadfield Court last Saturday that I did not have time to talk to the Band playing for the Ceilidh. Please can you thank Sheila and her Band very much for all their hard work looking after us, including the children who really enjoyed playing instruments in time with the band. We were v grateful to them and also for not having pieces that were too energetic so we had energy to keep going. Please pass on our gratitude. |
| Anniversary | thank you very much for organising Saturday night. The musicians were excellent and Sheila was quite marvellous as the caller. She pitched the whole evening perfectly from the level of noise down to the suitable dances, all with a lovely smile and a wonderful sense of humour. She actually had on the floor dancers from 9 up to 90! And I think they all thoroughly enjoyed the experience. |
