The Bisham Concert Band played to a packed church on 24th March at St Mary's. The programme contained music from the shows, well known film music, well-known favourites and not so well-known items.

Rectory Garden Party 6 August 2011 |
 |
With the rain still falling at 2 o’clock, hopes of a sunny afternoon for the Rectory Garden Party looked slim but thankfully the clouds rolled away and a pleasant time was had by all, with the Bisham Band playing the background music. Cream cakes, tea and squash together with ice cream were plentiful. Well done the helpers!
David Wallace’s home-made Barrel Organ (complete with monkey) attracted a lot of attention; anyone was welcome to have a twirl, the secret being to get the right speed to suit the tune.
With everyone socializing, the afternoon proved a great success, and we must not forget to thank David and Jo for the use of their garden.
