We dodged the rain (well mostly!)

The Buckingham Acoustic Club and the Town Council hosted the annual 'Music in the Market' event on Sunday and weather was (95% of the time) marvellous, despite the threats of thunder and torrential rain. The music was as usual brilliant with a wide range of folk, ambient and rock styles. As last year, I enjoyed opening it with our Town Crier and bringing it to a close at the end, although many I am sure would have liked it to go on into the early hours! #LoveBuckingham

Thanks to all who made this happen so smoothly including our Events Coordinator, Amanda Brubaker and the chair of Town Centre & Events committee, Cllr Terry Bloomfield. And the BAC team: Fraser Winterbottom, John Howarth, Mike Weston, Emma Jenkins, Thomas McAvoy, Henry Sampson, Udo Dölz, Suzy Ann Smith and Gary Warden (hope I have not missed anyone). And a huge thanks to all the musicians who entertained us!

I also broke out my new t-shirt with this logo emblazoned:
