Email received from Colin Osborne. Re Leprosy Mission Gig Friday 26th July

Dear Brian, “We had a truly wonderful evening last night with the Sandy Ukulele Group and it was great to have a full house and an appreciative audience. Our special guests were the High Sheriff of Bedfordshire, Meryl Dolling and her husband Michael and the Mayor and Mayoress of Sandy, Councillor Michael and Lynda Scott. As he left, Michael Dolling said that it was the best five pounds he had spent in a long time. The Concert was one of several special anniversary events the Sandy Branch of The Leprosy Mission is holding this year as it celebrates 50 years of fundraising in Sandy. The Branch is extremely grateful to the Ukulele Group and, as a result, a fantastic £555 was raised by the Concert. The Branch this year is attempting to raise £20,060 to fund five hospital beds with associated medical care at the leprosy hospital just outside Kathmandu in Nepal.”

Best wishes

Colin

Dear Sandy Ukulele Group Thank you so much for coming along to the Potton CIU Club on Saturday, and providing such an entertaining evening to raise money for Keech Hospice Care. Please can you convey our thanks to all your group members.
Despite it being a very busy day with the Royal wedding and football we still had a good number of people supporting the event, albeit some were late arriving!
The total raised from Ticket sales and Raffle was an amazing £249 .45.
Thank you once again.

Both our French guests from Malaunay and members of the Sandy twinning Association were delighted with Sunday evening's musical entertainment at Moggerhanger Village hall and a brilliant evening was had by all. The French song added a particularly appropriate flavour to the evening but it was great that there were so many songs all could join in regardless of nationality.

Our visitors from Normandy very much hope, as do members of the Association, that the

Sandy Ukulele group will accompany us to Malaunay next May and give another virtuouso performance on French soil.

Best regards, Max H Sandy Twinning Association

Thank you so much for all of your support with Jai at the Taj Mahal in Sandy. I have heard that the charity curry nights was a great success, and that the diners loved listening to you play.

I know that you made a very kind donation on the evening and I would really like to thank you formerly for you generosity and wonderful support.

On behalf of our club I am writing to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for coming / turning out for us regardless of the icy conditions on Monday evening. I am sure you must bring as much joy and happiness to everyone that hears you play as you certainly did to us. A lot of that pleasure is the playing/rapport between you all and the energy/enthusiasm you put into it Our sincerest thanks.

We should like to express our gratitude to yourself for your efforts and the group for attending our celebrations on Saturday last. We enjoyed ourselves enormously and we have had so many good reports from our guests. One of our number, a former RAF musician and school music teacher, admitting it was not his style of music , was delighted to see the way the group seemed to have so much fun in what they were doing. He made the point that, unlike some, the music was not overpowering and guests could make conversation as normal.

Special thanks to Godfrey and Andrew for their clever musical interlude, it all made for a perfect evening.

Thanks to all..

Dear Brian and the UKULELE group

Thank you so much for a fantastic evening. Everyone has come back and said to us what a brilliant night they all had. For me it was also a first for a ukulele and its music, as it was for everyone else to. You were fab to say the least. Words cannot express what a most exciting musical extravaganza. FAb Fab FAB.

It was also lovely to talk with some of the group. We didn't get around to speaking with everyone but i did speak with Sylvia. I have myself a real love and passion for music and singing so thank you to for letting me join in with you. It was on my part a real pleasure and honour to sing with you all. Thank you.

Thank you once again

From everyone at The Royal British Legion Baldock Branch, and all the people from the Poppy Appeal dinner.

"Hi Brian, What a great evening, well done all of you. I assist with the folk in the bus, getting them to the venue and home, and there was a lot of talk on the way home as to how much they enjoyed the evening. Then for me to be given the cheque for Canine Partners was truly wonderful. Please have a look at the web to see just what these dogs do for folk. I have one with me in training called Sandy. I need to have your home address so that I can send you and the group a letter of thanks, so please email me your address. A huge thanks to all the group"
