CHRISTMAS PARTY 2025

This is the night that Bluefunksters celebrate another brilliant year at the Club. We know it will have been brilliant because they always are. These party nights are always popular and regularly  sell out, long may that continue. Last year's party is already legendary having been headlined by the incomparable Paul  Rose trio with a superb supportimg show. 
It was talked about practically until Easter and left me with the pleasant problem of following it with a show of equal merit. I cheated and ran a straw poll with everyone who would normally attend, (almost everyone). It was a shoo-in as virtually everyone asked said same again please. Such is life in a democracy.
