Rather later than I intended but here is the second set of pics from yesterday's great Skin Côntact Live! concert. More pic posts to follow.

Good news from Skin Côntact blog:
'Over 300 tickets and 828 raffle tickets were sold, which means we will have hit the target of raising more than £10,000 for Wine Relief.'
