This was before we marched around the parade ring, before our shoes got covered in "horse poo".

The Band at Cheltenham College.
Details for this one a little bit sketchy - first one to supply the year will have their hair airbrushed back in later photos. |

Chief Inspector Ian Jones (left) and Superintendent Alan Bobs - founding members and life, soul and spirit of the Band.
Ian and Alan were taken from us far too early; but our memories, hearts and music will always be full of them....
Somewhere, rehearsing with the great Brass Band beyond, there is a willing and able utility cornet player, and a strong leading trombone - two of the most genuine and wonderful gentlemen you would ever wish to call "friends". Oh, and they also sing, and enjoy a beer.
As Ian always use to say "you should never confuse ability with ambition"!
