Jools Holland - taverham school - 28th July 6pm - 10.30pm
Just testing the water.....
I have two tickets for this show but since my mate will be away working, I now have a spare ticket and no-one to go with. Anyone interested in coming with me? The ticket is all paid for (no cost to you), but perhaps you could provide the picnic? Just let me know if you wish to come - if i get more than one person then name gets drawn out of a hat.

help please for the launch of a new play
Over these past four years many of you have come to performances at the Sewell Barn and at the Maddermarket in which my son Jonathan has played leading roles. Now, as he grows his acting career he is taking a play (which he is co-writing/producing/directing and acting in) to the Edinburgh fringe this year.
The company is trying so hard to raise funds to support their venture.
If in any way you or anyone you know can help it would be so appreciated ...
