The RM BAND performing during the Naval Band Concert in Arkhangelsk during 'Dervish75’. The crowd loved them so did the other Russian Navy bands.

Well we are hoping to attend the Royal Albert Hall in mid March to the Mountbatten Concert as we both enjoy the Royal Marines Band music
Never been before but I'm sure we will enjoy it , and it will be a welcome break from our current carers duties at home especially dear Karen ,.....albeit out of our financial comfort zone
