Hi Everyone :D

My name is Ian Sandell(styx) I joined as Bugler in 1962 Left in 1976.

Served at RM Depot Deal Staff Band, Eastney, HMS St. Vincent, HMS Raleigh,HMS Fearless and 42 Commando Pipe Band.

If any one remembers me get in touch.

I had a stroke in 2000 so am now not working so it gets pretty boring.

well enough of the intro lets go and have a look round. :P
