The BBs at the Mayor's Charity Ball, Town Moors, Eye, Suffolk - 4th May 2013

The BBs are doing their thing again for the Mayor of Eye's annual charity ball, held this year at the Community Centre on the Town Moors, rather than the Town Hall - although the choice is apparently not related to the fact that the latter has recently had its heating condemned. Before the gig, there's the usual couple of hours to kill, so we wander in to Eye for a beer and some tapas at the Eye Queen's Head.
