Nice one Mike. We had a great time, even though we are lightweights and only managed 3am! All the Djs were superb. It must have been good as all my shoes rubbed my feet to the point where plasters were needed Looking forward to the next one. Pete. thanks for playing my request!

Well it's not big and it's not clever drinking a pint of lager in one go but I did and lived to tell the tale - I blame those naughty Plymouth boys. Arrived in Gloucester at lunch time, checked in, had a great meal and a power nap, met friends and then off the event. Fast forward a few hours of listening to some great soul music, catching up with people not see for a while, drinking, and generally acting silly and dancing my socks off, legs sore today from dancing and going up and down the stairs, (someone suggested a Stannagh be installed) we bailed out before the end as lightweights. Getting back to hotel the bar was shut and Ginger and Joey had some HOT CHOCOLATE! before bed. Had a great time, thanks to everyone who make the night special, you know who you are. Taxi for Torquay - see you there.

Thanks Steph for opening this thread Also Thanks to everyoone who came to the allnighter last friday at Wotton Hall. Another great night and main room was packed throughout. Thanks to all of the DJ's for some great sets. I do not normally single out any DJ but thought Ginger Taylor really played an outstanding set of top quality tunes which fitted this nighter perfectly. What was brought to my attention was the question of lights around the bar area. When they went off I agreed the ambience was much improved. The staff seem to have a thing about lights. I have discussed this with the club, who are used to dealing with ballroom events and in future, lights will not be messed with without prior consultation with me. Oh the joys of promoting. Mind you this was only the 3rd nighter and we are only tweaking with things and things could be worse. Anyway hope you all enjoyed the nighter. Photos now on the website .

Next allnighter is on September 24th with main guests Ted Massey and Mick H plus the usual residents team. Regards Mike
