Throughout that time, there was live music by Jukebox Legends with the Elvis 2000 show, Paul Falcon and 60s legend and International singer Ricky Valance singing some of his classics including hit songs from his many recordings still on release all over the World. It was a real "Tell Laura I Love Her" event!
The night went with a swing and amongst all of the fun came a fabulous dance routine from "The Jazz Ladies" with their interpretation of "All That Jazz", a Spanish dancing display, Line dancing and an amazing FULL MONTY by three very brave guys including Harry and staff member Stuart. Wow, what a night - add a "Mr & Mrs" competition, a great raffle, fabulous food, an electric atmosphere and around two hundred people and you have one event to remember!!
