Chris Davis's Retirement Dinner

Last Saturday, Lynn and I were delighted to attend the retirement dinner of friend and former colleague Colonel Chris Davis after serving 34 years in the Royal Marines Band Service, the most recent 7 years as Principal Director of Music. The evening was a resounding success with the chance to meet up with old friends, enjoy a musical treat from my old band and to share some fond memories with the assembled. Chris, together with his wife Helen and their children (very grown up now) Jamie and Sarah looked relaxed and Helen received a bunch of flowers, whilst Chris showed off his new violin - made in China he said!
