Very true  about our cornets Vicki, especially when you consider that 
one of them (Alan Collard) has been principal and tutti solo cornet with 
Dandenong for over 30 years and has almost single handely held the band 
together during the lean years.  (His brother Bruce also has over 30 
years service and plays second cornet.)

Thinking of anyone in particular there Vicki?  Better not answer that.

Cheers,
Roy Taylor.  
City of Greater Dandenong Band.
