The SYWO in Normandy, and a Mini Music Festival, Mellis - 27th July 2025

Nosher, Harry and The Boy Phil cycle over to the Railway Tavern in Mellis for day two of its Mini Music Festival. Meanwhile, Fred's in Normandy with the Suffolk Youth Wind Orchestra on its annual tour, where they play in some impressive places with some decent-sized audiences. Photos of the performances are screen-grabs of the livestream, so are a bit fuzzier than usual.
