Ahoy there!,

It's been a fun little trip round the lighthouse this year with Box-o-Frogs but I must inform you that I shall be sailing off into the sunset next month!

My wife, Claire is expecting our second child in December and I thought it only fair that I muck in for the duration.  I'm going to give up the live music for a while and am putting the Frogs on indefinite shore leave.

HOWEVER - We are intending to go out with a full scale Naval Broadside!

and so

I am pleased to announce that we are one of the acts playing at the
RNLI fund raiser - train one, save many!
at the Essex Arms, Brentwood
Saturday November 13th
We are onstage from 4pm till 5pm
(that's a whole nautical HOUR, folks!)


It's only £3 to get in  (But to be honest I think that's so cheap that we should dig a bit deeper)

Children under 16 will be welcome up until 7pm - so you can bring the little fishies too!




There follows a crude facsimile of what we expect to occur:

As you can see above, we will have an extra shipmate on our final journey.
Bosun Dan Hobbs has agreed to help us round this treacherous promentary!  He will be singing, dancing the Hornpipe and blowing vigorously upon the correct end of his Kazoo (this time).

I'm sure you're all as pleased as he is that I didn't call him a "Rear Admiral" and will welcome him on board with one of those squeaky whistle things.


Please come if you can, it'd be great see you.

Cheers

Dave (Chris, Darren and Dan)


PS there's gonna be a secret practice gig on the 4th Nov, in the evening, also at the Essex Arms - we'll be on about 9-ish.
