Yes to November!

Spring has well and truly arrived shouting ‘wake up – life is happening!’ at full voice, And we can restart our engines, fire ourselves up, get moving and just simply rejoice! Nature is in full blown growth and renewal mode with a new, thick and lush lawn, Emerging bats, drumming woodpeckers and the symphony of the bird chorus at dawn! To match all this the Good Times Live comes to Chipping Sodbury with acts such Jessie J Madness, Emeli Sande and Tom Odell plus a whole lot more creating a stella cabaret! A little bit of Rio comes to the town on the 31 st of May with the Big Lunch of Feathers and Fiesta’ Showcasing a few hours of samba dancing and colourful carnival vibes before a long-needed siesta! In nearby Yate, the Football Club is hosting a day of music, entertainment and vans full of ice creams, And in Chipping Sodbury the Dominic Alldis Trio perform a fresh approach to classical themes. So waste no time in making the most on all that is on offer and email or call to book a room, And check out the town and surrounding area and enjoy the displays planted by Sodbury in Bloom!

April feels like the month where we sit up a little straighter – not yet fully sprung but not wrapped up in an emotional fleece, With the end of the relentless wet and grey days in sight as nature gets ready for its colourful showpiece! Let’s forget about soup stains on jumpers, bank balances squinting and energy levels vanishing by 3pm or even before, As we think of inching out of hibernation, looking forward to warmer times and seeing our motivation simply soar! We have the long Easter weekend to look forward to with chocolate eggs to enjoy plus Parades and a time to reflect, With family and friends as we also tuck into hot cross buns and roast lamb, plus sports and games and decorations to inspect! In Chipping Sodbury The Sodbury Yarn Over takes place with over 50 exhibitors showcasing knitting, spinning and crochet, Plus the town tenner’s back promoting all the lovely shops in the High Street and encouraging everyone to spend money all day! Our House is being performed at the Town Hall, as well as a Jersey Boys tribute act and the ‘That 80’s Rock Show’ Presenting an unforgettable night of big hair, big riffs and even bigger anthems sung with energy, enthusiasm and gusto! So why not pay a visit to The Moda House and the town and enjoy all this plus Chamber music and Kokomo singing soul, And let go for a few hours and share the joy of music making whether it is classical, disco or simply rock and roll!
