My names Rich Sharp and Im a Trombone player currently serving in Scotland Band and have been there since passing out in 2001. Hopefully be able to keep in touch with some of my Troop oppo's who are outside or going outside.

Also conduct Tullis Russel Mills band in Glenrothes, so if there are any ex bandies who fancy a blow drop me a line as new faces are always welcome!!(Shameless plug!!)

Hello Sharpy, You don't seem to have mentioned ALL of your skills do you? What about the guitar playing? My guitar gently weeps.........

There is a doctor in the Collingwood band area, perhaps she can help.

If your guitar is bleeding you definitely need a doctor's help!

Nurse, I want Guitar Gasses and 5 mg intravenous polish

Alright Sharpy,

Haven't spoken to you in a long while!! I'm married now to a bandy, I'm also at uni studying music and performance on the clarinet - far cries from my drumming days! I hope all is well up your end. Keep in touch.

Take care

You're right about that. BEWARE THE AARDVARK! He will spot any slip up and has plenty of ammo!

BTW Sharpy. What's the trombone section in the Scotland Band? I ask as I am also a trombonist living in Scotland and am interested in joinind the Scotland band. Any current info would be appreciated.

Cheers,

David.

David young man..IF you ever make it to the ranks, you have just secured a "Guaranteed" Draft to the furthermost outpost south of Jockland possible. Perhaps even solo trombone on Falkland Isles..
Dad and I will bring you up to speed on "how not to get what you want" from the Admiralty.. Stay on course wee man..

C'mon the Jocks..

It goes something like this:

Bandy: "Boss, you need trombone players in Scotland Band. I'm a trombonist, I come from Scotland so it makes perfect sense to draft me there."
Boss: "Couldn't agree more Musn Oik, so here's an Oboe and a warrant for the South Atlantic. Remember, if it's over 4 feet tall it's a nun, not a penguin, so don't run it over!"

This lad is a quick learner. I think when he joins he should be put on Aardvark detail immediately. No messing about....straight in there.

Although you still should be afraid. Be very afraid. I have been known to lightly fry the odd chap in the box for breakfast if he is at all disrespectful of The Aardvark brotherhood.
