They were great and I was sorry that I didn’t get to thank them as I should have done. I chose them on the basis of their version of Teenage Kicks and I was SO happy with my decision — and Teenage Kicks was great on the night! Thank you everyone at Seventh Second "

More September 2021"Please could you pass on our huge thanks for a fabulous eve on Saturday, despite a few occasions when the dance floor was a little empty as our friends were far too busy chatting or recovering from the huge food portions. We all had a great eve and thought your music and singing was fab. Especially thanks for working your way around the sound limitations to get the disco going and totally filling the dance floor for the finale. "
