Yeah, I know. It sort of sounded like I was saying it was in England, but,
of course, as everyone knows, it is actually on the other side of Hadrian's
Wall. What I meant was that the military Tattoo is a big thing in England.
The first Tattoo I ever attended was an enormous bash at Wembley Stadium in
London on the occasion of the Queen's silver jubilee. It was spectacular! It
was also the first time I ever saw a large military band march in three
quarter time.
Best to you, Norrie,
Bill
