Dear All,
	      At the Midlands Brass Band Championships last Sunday, held at
Leamington Spa, you may be interested to know that Abraham Darby School band
beat 3 other adult bands in the 4th division. This is quite some achievement
considering that it is the first time in 13 years that the school has entered
a contest.
We were headed by our new musical director, also director of Sovereign (who
won the championship division - well done!) Wayne Ruston.

Two members of the band play in another local band called Jackfield Elcock
Reisen Brass Band, who are in the first division. As their loyalty was with
the school, they decided to play in the contest with Abraham Darby.
Therefore, in order to "get back" at our Head Of Music, Simon Platford, for
an incident that happened not so many moons ago, certain people have been
spreading romours within the brass band fraternity that Simon threaghtened
and bent their arms to play with the school band.
I assure everyone that this is blatently untrue and that Myself, and Amy
played with the school because we wanted to. We find the whole incident
pathetic.

Incidentally, you may be interested to know that some people in Jackfield
have been saying that they came 6th out of 9, in the first division. They
didn't they came 6 out of 7th.

If Jackfield got themselves sorted out, and sacked the few select members who
are causing all the problems, they would be a much better band, who's time
isn't spent on fruitless arguments.

Two members of Abraham Darby School and Jackfield Band.

Tim Morgan- Please forward a copy of this to Wayne Ruston at your concert
this evening. He'll know who wrote the email.
