life OUT AND ABOUT On stage: The Goose Island Syncopators A drop of rain doesn't stop us Brits. This years Mottistone Jazz Festival was the wettest ever. Despite the rain approx 1000 people enjoyed the evening braving the wet and cold. The event, sponsored by Wightlink and IW County Press, was overall a great success and even when the rain became heavy only a handful of spectators packed up their picnic and left. On the whole people stuck it out in true British style. All I can say is "who's stolen our summer this year?" 34 Island Life - www.islandlife.tv
