The Things People Say...
Oxjam
I want to say a MASSIVE thanks to everyone on behalf of the Oxjam team and myself! Yesterday was absolutely brilliant!
My personal highlights were The Silver Rocket Club, Brooke, Whistling Biscuits, Dead Residents and Samba Galêz bringing a real carnival atmosphere to Womanby Street!
Thanks a million from the whole team and see you next year!!!
