Title: Wootton Bassett Rocks - make it Christmas number 1.
Post by: millwall on 24 November 2011, 22:18:55
The people of Royal Wootton Bassett have recorded a charity single (Green Day's 'Wake Me Up When September Ends') with proceeds being split across four forces charities - you may have seen it on the ITV 10pm news last night. Official release date is 27th November but you can watch the video here - absolutely amazing!

Lets hope it does reach No 1  ASAP  and remain there throughout the christamas period as we owe it to the fallen ones  and their families to honour them... as there will be one empty seat at so many dinner tables this christmas day

Not photogenic enough !!!

I do know quite a few of the folks that appear, but as a Bassett-ite, ex-military, and a regular attendee at the Repatriations, I do admit to a certain "bias" in relation to this, so I make no apology for pushing it ...HARD

Understand that, all I'm saying is that the total donation via Justgiving is has only moved forward by about £100 since I looked last night. I'm just encouraging people to contribute to this very worthwhile cause.
