The Mafia / Sunday 5th Feb, 8:56 am
We would like to thanks to very good friends of ours (Jackie & Phil) for allowing us the honour of playing at their 50th birthday bash last night @ Petersfield golf club!! ...They are both lovely people & support the local music like there's no tommorrow!! ...Despite most of us getting lost in the snow on the way yesterday, it was a fun evening last night & we hope we didn't terrify too many of their familly members during the course of the evenings (sometimes) musical entertainment?!?!

OK chaps (and chapesses) - just a bit of fun - we want you to recommend something. It might be a film, a band, a song, or it might be something sensible like a cleaning product, a builder, a handy hint or even an electricity supplier!! The choice is yours. Just pick something that you were impressed with and share it with the world!! :-)

This evening, if you are in the Winchester vicinity at tea time you can catch Mafia playing as part of the Winchester O'Neil's Irish Bar Charity weekend - lots of bands all giving their time for free to raise lots of money for some very worthwhile causes. Mafia will be on stage from 5.45 to 6.30. Otherwise, those of you down Swanage way can catch Nobba with the Thunderstuck boys giving it AC/DC large in the White Horse from 10.00pm....
