>From John Miller of Jag Jive

We're back from holiday and raring to go!

Just a quick reminder that our next dance is at the Borough Hall,
Godalming, next FRIDAY, 21st JUNE. We'll have the usual great
mix of modern, blues and swing music, with something for everyone.
As ever, it is really helpful if you can let us know in advance
whether or not you are coming.
Usual low price of =A35 in advance, =A36 on the door.
(anyone holding a ticket for MJC can get in for just =A34).

A very belated "Thank You" to everyone who told us how much they
enjoyed the music we did at Camber in May, on all three nights
but especially the downstairs session on Sunday night.

Any questions, suggestions, etc. please call (01372 457583)
or email jag_jive@hotmail.com.
