News from Rushall:
Rushall PCC hosted a smashing evening of music and singing at The Pennoyers Centre. We were most fortunate to have Andy Cox and his 'Jacob's Ladder' group leading our singing, and the rafters fairly shook. The young musicians are all stunningly skilled, and we had a great time joining in with the variety of songs. Rebecca Heaser and Alice Macfarlane also entertained us beautifully, John Adlam joined in with his trumpet, and the talented Rushall cooks produced a brilliant hot-pot supper.
Pennoyers was 'standing room only', and is a perfect place to hold a small function. Thanks of course to the hard-working PCC for laying on a great evening, and well done with the fund-raising!
