Night #19 was staged at the offices of Carolyn Molyneux's Delegate House. She was co-hosting the event with fellow Living Advent regulars Gill & Phil Chappell of GPC Marketing. Phil & Gill manned the refreshment tent, serving delicious mulled wine and cider, and mince pies, whilst Carolyn dished out an array of other tasty treats. Despite the soggy conditions, a good sized and spirited audience came, gave generously to the night's charity, Regatta for the Disabled, and congregated in the gardens, waiting to see who would emerge at the upstairs first floor advent window.

It was Living Advent debutants 3 piece (double bass, ukulele and sax) band the Laughing Ants, who treated the audience to a cool, jazzy and uplifting set, ranging from "Fly Me To The Moon", "Hit The Road Jack" and "Smooth Operator" to "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" via Pharrell's "Happy" and Camila Cabello's "Havana".

So generous was the audience that it was a record level of donations on a Delegate night!

Next up, night #20 in Market Place.
