A homepage for my hillwalking photos
While his parents were away on holiday, Chris invited the band to his house in Grove (near Wantage, in Oxfordshire) for a barbecue. Only seven of us actually attended, however. As well as the barbecue itself, we enjoyed driving trains around Chris’s garden (and this seems to have been the subject of most of my photos!).

The band met for numerous events in May Week – here are a few photos of a punting trip along the Backs, curry at the Kohinoor, and Wolfson June Event.

This year’s Brass Band Annual Dinner was held at Churchill College, with pre- and post-dinner drinks in the college bar. Unfortunately being midway through my exams meant that I couldn’t/didn’t stay too late, but it was a good evening nevertheless!

My third fantastic tour with the Brass Band was to mid-Wales, staying in an Outdoor Education centre by the coast in Llwyngwril. We visited and played concerts in Guilsfield, Machynlleth and Barmouth, and I also managed to persuade several people to join me on hillwalking excursions! Plus all the Tour traditions of course!

Jenny organised a formal hall for the Brass Band at Jesus College. Afterwards we went to the pub quiz at The Bun Shop, and then to Chris’s room in Magdalene.

It was the hottest May day in 50 years (well, it was in London anyway), so a few of us from the band – actually just a selection of this year and next year’s committees! – decided to take an evening off from revision for a punt along the backs. N.B. Jenny was there too, but seems to have avoided being photographed!

Just a few photos from the Brass Band Annual Dinner, which was held this year at Selwyn College. Afterwards we continued to the Hat and Feathers, and then to John’s room at Corpus.

This year’s Brass Band tour was to the Midlands, staying in a large hostel near Hanley Swan. We performed in Great Malvern, Hagley, Solihull and Stourbridge, and also had time for visits to Stratford and Birmingham, and a night-time walk up the Worcestershire Beacon, plus all the traditional tour antics of course!

My first tour with Cambridge University Brass Band was to the Liverpool/St Helens area. Over the four days, we enjoyed playing five successful concerts, and made visits to Chester and Liverpool.
