We were back at Buxton again last night, with more new tunes to add to the well-tried favourites.  As ever the Festival Fringe organisation was spot on, and the good folk at the Buxton Methodist Church (along with band partners helping with tickets and refreshments) did us proud.  There was a good and enthusiastic audience, and we garnered another complimentary review to add to our collection.  A thoroughly enjoyable and worthwhile evening out!
