In the beginning of May this year I was in Wales to help Beaumaris band out for the senior trophy in Blackpool. I spend a few days in Beaumaris, Anglesey rehearsing with the band. I had a great time. They are a really nice band that really appreciated me helping out. On the day of the contest I was locked up in the pub where I stayed. So I had to use the fire exit to be on time for my lift to the contest. The band really did a great job and they won the senior trophy. We had to play ‘Le roi d’ys. So there was a big euph solo in it to. The adjudicators chose me to win the solo award. I was really pleased for the band for their victory.

The band recently wrote an article on 4barsrest about there busy times and the celebration of the victory in Blackpool. I want to thank the band for their kind words in the article and for their appreciation for me.
