Melton Band performed in Cutts Close Oakham Rutland Yesterday (12th September 2021) Next week Rutland Big Band Prom in The Park.

Melton Band performed in Cutts Close Oakham Rutland Yesterday (12th September 2021)

The turn out started well, unlike other weeks this year people soon gave up their seats and departed in large numbers. This can be seen from the photo I took around 3pm and the video around 45 minutes later. Some comments heard were not the best for the band. There was sympathy for one of the band members who performed after very recently suffering a heart attack.

Oddly most of the band decided the grass in front of the Bandstand was a car park, they did move all but one car to the proper car park when asked by the council, the red car that remained could not be removed because the band members wife had gone elsewhere. I often wonder why bands think it is fine to drive their cars through our park. They don't do it to get to the Bandstand in Play Close Melton. 

The band played quite a dreary set and this could be felt in the atmosphere in the park. The were long gaps between each piece played. The last two pieces played were much more lively, I assume this was to ensure no one was left sleeping in the park over night.

Next week is the last band concert in the park for the year. Rutland Big Band will be performing Prom in the Park.

This years band concerts have been very popular after Oakham Town Council dropped some of the regular boring bands. Yesterdays performance and turnout was a little reminder of the disastrous past.

I think wrinkle rock is missed a lot, unfortunately most of those band members are now too old to perform so I am told.

John Lewis The Place to Eat Highcross Leicester, I would not be surprised if this was the next store to close.

John Lewis The Place to Eat Highcross Leicester, I would not be surprised if this was the next store to close. Although the service in the cafe was good, the shop floor service is dreadful plenty of staff standing around chatting to each other rather disinterested in customers and just like M&S they don't seem to have stock and offer to order items on-line  for me. I certainly did not want to take that chance my mum has ordered a basic table and chairs from them and they have taken the money and give an estimated delivery date of one month away and if I wanted to shop on-line I would not have travelled to the store. The item I wanted from the electrical department was available from Amazon for the same price it arrived this 8 hours later and the computer gave me information about the product that the sales assistant could not give me. 🙁
