Many congrats to our solo flute player Gillian on her wedding yesterday to Jim.

A great day was had by all. Good to see the vollies were the last to leave the reception and helping the bar staff to clear the tables.......(Mine sweeping is a great sport but my head is still throbbing.)

Guys Thankyou very much for your words, much appreciated by both of us. Yes Rab the labours of love have now began although, my days of ranting"the***Navy" are well gone as he left after 23 years in 2004, although they still get in th eway as he works for serco denholm so there is not much change!

Nice to to see you are still around Rab! hows things in sunny perthshire! or is it soggy Perth like here in midgie glen!!

Steve, it is a long held tradition that the band are last to leave at anyones reception, although it doesn't usually apply to me as the alchohol usually takes effect around 10ish. However, "My husband and I " I am told dissappeared upstairs at about 2ish and it was brilliant. Thanks again to you Di, Karen, Chris and Len for providing the music it was fantastic.

Yeh Yeh Guys, I see you're busy you lot!!I wont try and dig myself out of a hole because it would just get deeper!!
Anyway, it was a brilliant day as was the festival and I am now glad for the break so that I can a) get some work done and b) get back on the treadmill and perhaps fit the uniform in time for November ceremonies.

For the Neptune Lot, Kathryn has asked me to let you know BBQ at her gaff week on Saturday, all she asks that you bring your own booze and her and i will supply the food!! Jamie & Jim will do the cooking!!!

See you all there- if folk need collecting please let me know on the usual contacts or via the board!
