Hi Bothy... I was 14 teen when I joined the band that's where I met Bob Agnew,..I was learning the Clarinet.. My birthday is in March so just before Christmass that year Bob asked me if I would like to work in his Printing firm it was in Ewarts row, The Castle Press, ..so I left school 3 months before my 15th birthday and went to work for Bob,.. I left after about a year and that's when I quit the band wish I had kept on at the Clarinet, .about 15 years ago my daughter brought home a Clarinet from school that's when I started back at it,..now ..I play Clarinet in church Sunday morning, the Barri, and Tenor Sax,. in two dance bands, and a Wind Ensemble, would be nice to see a photo of the band, I remember playing in the band stand at Alexander Park
cheers Crooksy
