BUDE and Okehampton based band 'Ophelia' rocked the night away at the Strand Hotel on Saturday, September 17 with a mixture of their own music, written by the band themselves, as well as some great covers including songs from Thin Lizzy, Amy Winehouse, The Rolling Stones, Sam Browne and Adele, to name but a few.

There was also a raffle to raise money for the Bude Sea Pool — a cause very dear to the people of Bude.

Lead singer Pam Belverstone said: "I live in Bude myself and want desperately to keep the pool running once the county relinquishes its ownership and the charity takes over."
