WHAT a fabulous experience the Ramsbottom Blues Festival was at the weekend. The atmosphere was "buzzing" and the crowds who turned out all had a great time.

There were local bands, bands from afar, solo acts and duos; something for everyone in fact. The weather didn't dampen the enthusiasm of the audiences, who travelled from venue to venue to catch as many sessions as possible. Well done to all concerned. Same place, same time next year?
