Thanks to all those who turned out today to play at the Coronation Gardens, I received some good comments on the way we played and Uncle Nick didn't seem too disappointed with the performance. It could be that last Thursday's fiasco of a rehearsal was just a blip, but perhaps we will reserve judgement on that for a while.
What a day!!!!
No one can imagine how proud and overjoyed I was standing in the middle of you lot yesterday as the awards were being announced. I always feel priviledged when we go out as a band as the Bandmaster - I feel proud every time!!
But yesterday - WOW!!!!!!!!
You certainly did the business - it looks like I'll have to get a bigger uniform as my chest is so pushed out with pride.
Thank you all for your tremendous efforts over the past few weeks and here's to Rubery next week. Don't think we will have the same result but if we put in the same effort on the day - who knows?
I would just like to say what a superb lot of people you all are for attending at Llandyrnog today.
I did not hear one complaint from anyone although you were asked to play and march continuously throughout the day. Thsnks to Jean for again for keeping us supplied with refreshments. I'm sure that all this hard work will pay off.
Thanks to all of you for turning out on Saturday to play for the Forum for People with Learning Difficulties.
We gave a lot of people not so fortunate as ourselves a lot of pleasure and we have already been asked if we will be available to play next year. I have, of course, said we will.
