Having spent too much time sitting around the house on an evening, my wife suggested that I get a hobby. It was a number of years since I had played so I bought a trombone and started to work my way through various tunes in the back bedroom. It didn’t take long before it was suggested to me that I need to get out of the house more and maybe find a band to play with. Having spent years listening to various bands in contests and concerts, I don’t know why it took me so long to get involved but I’m glad I did and thoroughly enjoy playing at every opportunity. Away from the band room I enjoy cycling, walking, watching cricket and football – C’mon Boro !!
