Double
Celebration
There have been two celebrations in the Ritchie household in the last few
weeks:-
Firstly on 28th
September 2003 May and Sam Richie (Band Sergeant) celebrated their ruby wedding anniversary, and
thank God for 40 happy years together!
Then on Friday 24th October 2003, May and Sam celebrated the
birth of a new granddaughter, Holly, who weighed in at 9lbs 5oz. Both Holly and
her mum are doing well.
Congratulations to all the Ritchie family!
Halloween At The
Bandmaster's House
On 31st
October 2003, there were some spooky goings on at the Bandmasters haunted house
as celebrities came back from the dead!
Ross
Dickie held a Halloween party for some of the youth of corps, and the guests
included Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe.
We were all dressed up, from superheroes to scientists, and Peter Pan,
fairies, doctors, witches, soldiers and Mrs Claus were also present.
We went
round the neighbourhood to some other bandmembers houses “trick or treating”
and scaring the neighbourhood children in the process.
It must have been a scary sight to see all of us all walking down the
street!
There
was music, games and great food, but most of all there was great fellowship and
fun.
