Albert Jones popped in on his way to the Barrel House ably accompanied by Max Evans on Sax and Chris Jones on Double Bass. The picture above, whilst not a true likeness, does justice to Albert’s lovely beard. Got to say a big thank you to these guys who arrived emaciated. We revived them with raisin biscuits and tea, and they pulled this lot out of the bag.
