MAY I just thank the organisers of Bands in the Barracks on June 21; my husband and I enjoyed the event very much.

We were in two minds whether to go or not because of the heavy rain, but were glad we did. Someone must have been looking down because the rain stopped and it was clear the rest of the evening.

Thanks also to the different bands involved, the ATC and Sea Cadets plus the Army bands. It is a shame that the weather put off quite a few people from attending.
