If you have a Concert this weekend how about incouding a tune from "Oliver" in memory of the musicians from the Fist Battalion Royal Green Jackets who died in the Regents Park bombing 30 years ago today.
I was on another London bandstand at the time - it could so easily have been different.
They were playing a selection from Oliver when the bomb went off.

30 years? I'm getting old. Tough times, I responded to too many bombings back in those days. Having to shoot injured horses in the street at one.
Blow in the little end. Noise comes out the Big end.Simples !
Better to be a Has Been, than a Never Was!
How time flies - I was a pupil at KH with one of those killed and Dave Little, the MD, was a student bandmaster at the same time. If you read this Dave, I trust you are well.
