I would like to thank Nigel and Yvonne and all of their staff at The Cumberland bar for some truly great memories, and so too our “members”, many of whom have become personal friends along the way, as well as performers Harry Andrews and our very own Elvis, Alan Dodd too for all their sterling efforts who all came together to create something pretty special in my opinion. Never shy of going the extra mile to create something different, whether it be holding the very popular remembrance service, “A festival of Christmas Songs”, whilst raising funds for “Help For Heroes” or indulging the Concert Chairman in his strange little parallel universe, they were never shy of putting the hard graft in to make things work, and I for one enjoyed every minute.
They deserve to put their feet up now and have a bit of a rest, but not too long I hope, for this is not the end of the story. The Blackpool reunion goes ahead as usual and we are also planning beyond that to recreate some of the highlights from The Cumberland Bar during the “Sunday Afternoon Extravaganza´s” in a new venture. We´ll let you know.
These posts will continue as I´ll remain in Benidorm for the winter season´s, or at least that´s the plan, the Chairman has just secured another post at the “Two Seals” pub opposite Steptoes cabaret spot where he will no doubt continue his reign of terror.
