Hello from sunny Bolton!

Give us a buzz if you remember me 1980-1994, mainly Dartmouth Band, FOF III (1986), ending with Staff Band in 1994, when I became the only three badge Bugler in the world ever to be made compulsory Redundant.

I'm not sure this forum rank structure is going to do me any favours, looking at the amount of posts already submitted by some of you lot. At this rate I'll struggle to make it to Corporal........ oh well wot's new!!

Skull of the sunken chest and likkle man fame!

Don't worry about promotion, it is only fun. As you have already seen there is 'On audition' and 'In Basic Training' so far... plenty more to come

You and me both AaAa!

Welcome Paul, our paths must have crossed at BRNC. I didn't leave to rejoin the Dogends until 1981. Was Dave Butler still there? It all gets a little hazy...

Now, I can't even bring myself to talk to him.

To be honest, I don't even want to play fetch with him

ITMA!

Hi Paul
Hope you're well - we still need to arrange going for that pint or 3.
