Christmas seems to start earlier every year, so at the end of November the band were once again invited to support the MeningitisNow concert in Gloucester Cathedral.

We then followed that up some new adventures – several appearances with the Cotswold Reindeer Herd, and a completely new venue for the Band’s Christmas concert in Wycliffe College’s chapel. Then there were the really local concerts: the local favourite with Christmas on the Hill at the Chalford Sports and Social, and more carols in a freezing barn in Brownshill, that even featured MD Steve Tubb on baritone.
