The band would like to welcome Anna Conway to the band as our new addition to the front row.
Anna has already made an invaluable contribution and we hope that she enjoys her time with us.

2008 Scottish Regional Championship
Retrospective: Third Section
The space race came to Glenrothes on the weekend, and the Scots certainly had two bands who went into orbit.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Paul Lovatt- Cooper’s ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’ provided the eleven bands on the Saturday in the Third Section with a fine test piece to get their teeth into.
It also proved to be an ideal piece for the bands to show of their qualities too – full of colour, interesting textures, lyrical tunes and exciting effects. As a result all eleven played as well as they could have expected, and whilst the overall standard did vary, adjudicates Steve Sykes and Steve Pritchard-Jones had plenty of performances to sit back and admire.
No problems
'No problems of just about any variety for Dalkeith and Monktonhall though and a performance that fully deserved to take home with them the Scottish Championship trophy as well as the qualification to Harrogate.
James Chamberlain delivered a very persuasive reading of the score, whilst his players responded in kind with great dynamic features, balanced ensemble, solid solos and a sense of character to their playing.
This really was space age stuff – modern and exciting, full of energy and clean lines. It did get a touch hard in places and there seemed little need for the back row to stand when they were doing OK anyway, but it just added that extra sheen to a performance of merit, and which certainly found favour in the box. It also meant a double for the MD as he also won with Whitburn on the Sunday – a great weekend then for Jim.'
Always nice
