  2. A Passion For Music

    Here is something that Gareth sent me some time ago. It's about time you all had a chance to see it. Apart from being very amusing, it also contains pearls of wisdom - so pay attention! I expect everyone in band to sit one-sided from now on...

  3. Their Dream: To Play And March In Time

    If you like marching bands, you could do worse than to emulate this bunch! They are the 'Kongens Gardes' (King's Guard) from Norway.

    Of course, this routine would never do for TYMBA because we know they don't like people firing blanks from guns (after we did it)! And I don't know what they would make of throwing rifles around with bayonets fixed...

    I don't think I can post a live link here, so you'll have to copy the YouTube link and paste it into your browser manually:-

    • Or you can wait until I go into the database and turn it into a link. :-)

    My warmest thanks to all of you for doing the band proud last night by putting on a tremendous show which seemed to have been enjoyed by everyone there.
    Special thanks to Helena and Nick for their very hard work, it all paid off.

    • I have had a lot of very positive feedback from different people. My mum says there was lots of people taking about it at church this morning and saying how much they enjoyed it. The Mayoress also really enjoyed it so I heard.

      Well done everyone. Looked like you all enjoyed your well earned party celebration afterwards.
