The band were able to get back out at long last on a lovely sunny day to do a recital for the residents of Skibbereen Retirement Village and Care home. It was great to see all the residents there and we hope to play there again soon.

We travelled to Cape Clear to support their local Festival on the island. It was choppy weather going over but the sun came out as we arrived. It was a lovely day out and the islanders hosted us well.
