big thanks to all the bands for some great music on the day, the march which i decided to watch from my front door looked impressive heading down into the town.
as for the rest? stick an "f" in front of your rear end, it was like a poor mans southend games, not even that good, ok so it was windy and very cold, but the weather was lovely down on the lower school field, not an air of wind and a good deal warmer too, keep that in mind for next year, even if only to avoid making the older generations climb that hill, i know one granny that missed the two bands playing in the grade 2 because she scouldn't face the assault on the summit a second time.
still it was a first attempt and if the visiting bands enjoyed their day then thats the most important thing, get them to come back? i hope so, and who knows in 100 yrs time it could rival cowal.
