The leisure centre was dropped a few years ago, problems with access from the 
Angel if I remember correctly. GHB is still very much in control.

 <<There used to be 2 main highlights: Bretforton ending the day at the
 Angel Inn, and Banks's Brewery closing the main programme in the Abbey.
 It was a real shame that these events coincided.>>
There are now 5 championship section bands but all other sections are still 
well represented. Rolls Royce finished in the Abbey (long after I had 
repaired to the Angel) and Lydney in the Marquee.

 <<How was the weather this year?>>
Sunny as always.

<< And was there the entertaining spectacle
 of watching brass players run from one venue to another because there
 was another concert starting in 10 mins time?>>
Things are far more organised these days. The schedule runs to time!

 <<Robert Lynch (rarely known as "Bob") >>

I'm sure it used to be Rob in the Bankss days but no offence intended<G>!
