We have just returned from a great weekend performing for the lovely people of Bath and Midsomer Norton at their annual Mardi Gras festival.  We had the distinct honour of performing outside Bath Cathedral for hundreds of locals and tourists and subsequently suspended the evening service in the cathedral for 20 minutes due the huge demand from the audience for our show. A huge thank you to Leroy Grubb and the festival comittee for looking after us so well over the weekend.  We are all looking forward to returning in 2005 to entertain all again and we promise not to hold up the Sunday evening service if we can.......
