            <description><![CDATA[<p>Our rehearsals have been going well and we have a lot of material, including some new songs that we are perfecting. Dave ( drummer and percussionist extraordinaire ) has shown that he not only plays a mean triangle, but he can also hold the odd note and play keyboard too...We all had a go at harmonies and even Dave ( legendary guitarist ) managed to croak in key... Lots of interesting developments me thinks... Jerry of course can sing, he just needs a few sherbets / tiramisu cakes to get him going..</p><br /><p>We have been busy chasing up gigs and applying to all sorts of festivals and events for the coming year, we await with bated breath as to weather we get in.
