Last weekend (6^th and 7^th July), we were guests of the Avon Navigation Trust all weekend and broadcast from our floating studio on the river cruiser Princess Marina and the Avon Navigation Trust pontoon. Thank you to the Trust for their hospitality and support.

Also a big THANK YOU to everyone who donated in return for a donation and to everyone we interviewed whether it was live on air or recorded. We edited everything together into one big River Festival Show which you can hear at every evening for a week at the times displayed above.
