Monday
Monday morning saw the end of a relaxing weekend and the start of a busy week
ahead. Having enjoyed a brilliant week doing the Mountbatten Concert at the
Albert Hall, things got back to normal as we slowed the pace down to assessments,
grade exams and up coming gigs.
Tuesday
Tuesday, and there was rehearsal for a concert at the Guildhall with the Hampshire
Police Band. The repertoire for the buglers was Gibraltar, Millennium, the Gael
and of course the usual finale set up.
With our Grade Six drumming exams coming up, we had to go through our pieces
with the professor Mr Cameron, the two pieces are certainly a step up from Grade
5!
Wednesday
Everyone looks forward to this day because of the activities we do halfway through
the day. Whilst everyone else was doing RT with the PTIs, myself, Bug Mace and
Musn Grey were on our way to Brockenhurst in Dorset to go bike riding around
the forest. When we finally found the place, it was most enjoyable.
Thursday
Early morning phys soon woke us up at 0730 with a wonderful circuit that we
all thoroughly enjoyed! With assessments on their way the Buglers are working
hard to get the studies and pieces cracked. We are going through repertoire
for the gigs approaching and Grade Six pieces which need to be done, so a busy
few weeks ahead!
Friday
With the weekend around the corner, it's hard to keep our minds on work, especially
at 1520 when there is only an hour to go. Never the less work goes on. The bugle
call goes and everyone leaves to enjoy a well-earned weekend.
