STAND UP TO CANCER

Picture
Lovely get together last night with friends at Alfreton to celebrate the “kick ass” attitude to combat prostate cancer. Organised by Dave Braithwait and Mick to give thanks to all who supported them during their battle with the condition and who constantly urge all men who haven’t been tested to get checked out.
Thanks for a great night chaps.
Dave, Malcolm, Dave and Dave sang "Bring Him Home" from Les Miserables
