AGM - Another Gorgeous Man or Madam 7 minutes ago

Well it all kicked off to a flying start on Monday night withAughintober's annual general meeting. That?s right, once a year - thetroops gather to the round table that is the legendary gathering placeof King Arthur's knights in the Arthurian legend, or maybe I meanaround the table, - to discuss the past, the present and the future.Although I cannot spill all the secrets of the meeting I can revealthat:

Aughintober are looking into travel and stayingarrangements for the European?s - July 25th at Inverclyde. Somebodysuggested the Euro Hostel for accommodation, and how we laughed becauseobviously they weren?t serious????

The organising of ?A Nightat the Races? is underway and looks to be a good night?s craic. It ison Saturday 18th October and is being held in Davison?s Bar. You canalso sponsor a horse for £10, just ask any band member for details.

Band practice resumes Monday 6th October and Pipe Major Glenn promisedus he has some surprises in store... we get the feeling it?s a longgruelling winters practice and not a weekend away to Disney Land.

I once heard that the definition of a Committee is ?a body that keepsminutes and wastes hours.? We must have a strange breed of committeemembers as they were all happy enough to fly through the proceedings sothey could get home. All Aughintober?s Committee decided they couldhandle the randomness of organising a pipe band and signed on foranother year.

Well that?s all the baked beans I can spill for one day so until next time...
