The GSB and Ron's Retirement, and Dog Sitting in Braisworth, Suffolk - 1st July 2023
We're dog-sitting for Clive and Suzanne, who are off for a rare few-days' break without Peppa the spaniel. Whilst there, we walk up to the nearby White Horse pub at Stoke Ash for dinner, and spend a lot of the time flinging around a ball on a string for Peppa to chase and retrieve. Before that, the Gislingham Silver Band is out for dinner to celeberate Ron Wright's retirement after some 80 years of playing - around 30 of which were as some part of the band.
