The Central Band of The Royal British Legion, Scotland are looking for recruits to help swell their numbers. We already have a number of former Royal Marines Bandsmen (me included) and too many ex pongos !!! Anyway, if anyone living in Scotland, preferably near to Edinburgh where we rehearse would like to join, drop me a line and I can give details. One practice a week, a few gigs and plenty social. Uniform and instruments provided !!

Pictured with Police car in back ground cause that's our day time job.

Find attached photos.

What an extremely smart looking band. All you need now is a good Drum Major and Corps Of Drums.

Not quite. But would the band pay for me to fly up from the Isle Of Wight at least once a week?

Just the sort of reply you would expect from me..

"Yep....A one way ticket on a Kami-Kasi training flight would I'm sure provide a 'chip in'.....
