Hi and welcome Ian.. I'm sure our paths crossed at some stage. You would be in the Lynn James/Allan Webb era of percussionists. Welcome aboard matey. Look forward to your stories..

Welcome Ian,
I hope you enjoy your visits with us and don't be a stranger (the Aardvark is strange enough for all of us!).

I removed your email address from your post because members can click on the email button in your profile or under any of your posts. Putting it in clear will allow the email robots to find it and spam you.

Hello Ian

Your Dad used to run the Port Arms in Deal?

It's still a popular seafront pub....but according to my son, is about to be transformed into a sports bar........

Hi Ian

You left just a couple of years after I joined so I doubt we ever met. As you have probably gathered ...you don`t have to be mad to enjoy this site.....but.....

(I thought the Port Arms was always a Sports Bar, nudge nudge wink wink

)!!!!

Hi, Ian from a fellow ex perc. We met in passing just a few times. I did 1974-1989, and had the pleasure of OSHKA as my mentor, when i left the box !!! (more fun to talk about good times I had at the Port Arms).

Welcome Ian. I used to play the trombone a little, well done for playing the drum.
