Thanks and welcome at Carlton Main

31-Oct-2009
New arrivals and thanks for the help at Carlton Main.

Carlton Main Frickley has thanked cornet player Iain Culross who has stood in for regular principal cornet player Kirsty Abbottts since August.

Birth

Kirsty will be returning to regular duties following the birth of her son Jack on 19th October.

Admiration

Nigel Dixon told 4BR: "We have have nothing but admiration for Ian, who did a great job for us at both the British Open, the Nationals and a number of high profile engagements. Iain has been the ultimate professional, a great team player and fitted into the band's social life so well."

He added: "We are sure that Iain will be in the bandroom again, but in the meantime we would like to wish him every success for the future."

Young Joe

The band has also congratulated Kirsty and partner Joe on the birth of their son Jack who was born on the 19th of October.

All are doing well - so much so that Kirsty will be back in the principal cornet seat for Brass in Concert.
