🎤 Viva… Blyth! 🎤

What a brilliant afternoon we had yesterday at the Blyth Comrades Club for our Elvis Celebration! 🕺🎶

Our Elvis tribute singer went down an absolute storm, with our guests enjoying a host of lively entertainment and song. There was a wonderful atmosphere throughout - and we think it’s safe to say Elvis was certainly in the building! 🎸✨

A huge thank you to Brian and the team at the Comrades Club for all their hard work, help and support in hosting our event. We really appreciate everything you did to make the afternoon such a success. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who joined us - you certainly made it a memorable one!

🎶 Viva Las Vegas… Viva Blyth! 🎶
