Butterflies lining up in two sets of three for a dance. — Our thanks go to the Alvechurch band for stepping in
and saving the day, in classic 'the show must go on' tradition,
when some of our musicians were not able to play at the last minute.

Great day at the Upton on Severn Folk Festival again, made even better by the fantastic weather.
