The Ambassador's in SpainRATBY BAND JOIN THE AMBASSADOR'S
Geoff Newman took hold of the baton for the latest Ambassador's Band tour arranged by Phil Plant and Stan
Hearne.
A week in the Spanish sun, in a cracking hotel, eating superb food, lounging by the two hotel swimming pools, in great company..what more could you ask for?
The locals seemed to enjoy the playing, both in the hotel and in the church square in Calella, as they thoughtfully provided benches to enable many to sit in the sun and to be entertained for a while, not a glum face anywhere.
The players this year were made up of Ratby Co-operative Band players from Senior, Mid & Youth Sections, Leicestershire Co-op, Cubbington Silver, Burbage Elland Silver and Unity Brass Bands - and the mix must have been a good one, because many of' us have already booked to go back next May.
