Hi Roger,
Many thanks for your congratulations, we had a fantastic day as the results suggest and it was nice to get our first win since changing our name back in January.
It was also good to give Denzil Stephens (our M.D) a belated 74th Birthday present.......the man`s a legend!
Many thanks also to "our" Naomi and the Leyland Band, she was our "ringer" on percussion for the day and played a right stormer!
Thanks also to the SWBBA for a well run contest played in the right spirit.

Ian Heard.

Hi Steve,
As Naomi says, Hayley is in fine fettle and enjoying her banding again after a short sabbatical.
Thankyou for your congrats. slightly miffed at the British Bandsman this morning for printing Torbay as the winners..... anybody but Torbay! (sorry local rivalry I`m afraid)
How are things with YWD,are you going to Folkestone?

No we're skipping it this year since we have most of our corner seats absent (including me :oops: ). We were going to do Aylesbury but they moved it to Feb, so we're working up for Liecester now.
