A Summer Party, and the GSB at North Cove, Suffolk - 16th July 2023

It's time for a summer party, and there are two full kegs of homebrew - a mild and a saison - ready to go. Then, the Gislingham Silver Band is doing a gig at the Three Horseshoes pub just off the Lowestoft road a few miles beyond Beccles. Despite the middle-of-nowehere vibe, there's a reasonable turnout and the set goes down well with the locals.
