On Friday 20th March we celebrated Rodney (Papparazzi) Parrish’s 60th Birthday at Holsworthy Memorial Hall.
There was a large turnout for this event with some guests travelling quite a distance to be there.
Musical entertainment was provided by Andrew Parrish, reliving his Disco days, and The James Gang, a live band from the Bideford area, specialising in an early 1980’s style.
Rodney was forbidden to use his camera but Sarah photographed all the guests and the Band and Chris went on the prowl with Rodney’s camera.
A very good time was had by all and I am sure several woke with thick heads the following morning.
I will add some photos in the next few days.
