Kingsmen - 60th Birthday surprise

A small group of Kingsmen performed at a 60th birthday surprise at the Langstone Cliff Hotel, Dawlish to the delight of the guests and Wendy, who's birthday it happened to be.

Wendy's daughter Leila was happy for me to use her words (and some of her photos) as follows:

Quote:

"Thank you all so, so much for the wonderful performance on Saturday, it was spectacular and the highlight of the celebrations. My Mum was incredibly moved (and surprised - result!) and also my Dad and Grandfather were so overwhelmed as were many of our guests, there were a number of moist eyes! For me of course seeing Mum's reaction was very special and my Grandad.

Your set was just perfect and every song was enjoyed, the 'Lion King' was a hit for my girls. As you say the venue was also stunning, the sea view is beautiful and we found all of the team very helpful, the salon worked out well!

I was so grateful to you for bringing the guys together for this, especially with such a big performance in the evening, I am glad to hear it was a success.

I will look forward to hearing more about the 2018 USA Tour!

Sending very best wishes to all Kingsmen,

Leila and family"

Marathon Support to the Chairmans Charity

By Andrew Large • January 20, 2026

So, in the words of Jim Stewart, why would a 67 year old who hasn't even completed a "couch to 5k" run in a Marathon, let alone the Madrid event, one of the hilliest on the circuit? Jim has chosen to take up this challenge to run and raise funds for Prostate Cancer UK, this is the Kingsmen Chairmans Charity this year and so we are all throwing all of our support behind Jim. Here's why Jim chosen to run and raise funds for Prostate Cancer UK "I recently sat in my GP’s office after a PSA test. My results were ‘normal,’ yet I was told not to take 'comfort' in that. The PSA is only an indication, not a diagnosis, and it left me with a chilling realization: 'normal' doesn’t always mean 'safe.'" Prostrate Cancer UK's mission is: Prostate Cancer UK has a simple ambition - to stop men dying from prostate cancer. Through shifting the science over the next 10 years to focus on radical improvements in diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and support, we will stop prostate cancer being a killer. Jim has set up a justgiving page which can be found at: https://www.justgiving.com/page/kingsmen-jim Jim also has his own Marathon Blog: https://marathonfundraiserforprostatecancer.blogspot.com/p/home.html Please visit these pages and if you can support Jim in this wild endeavour then please do so.
