Hey just has a really encouraging email from Jack Alexander who thanked me for all the Salvation Army Band have done to 'resurrect' the remembrance ceremony at the Haymarket last Sunday. It seems there's been a lot of positive feedback with most old hands seeming to agree that it was the best Remembrance ceremony in forty years. "Without the support of the Salvation Army the whole event would have died. Now, suddenly, there's a context and a content and a passion about it again. And you've played an important part in that."
Well done Keith and the band for being faithful in the 'lean years'. Apparently we featured on the TV before the live HeartsvAberdeen match on Sunday afternoon.
Reminded me of the value of positive encouragement.

Hi Iain,
I'd like to add my positive encouragement. The Salvation army lends the whole service dignity and solemnity. That you maintained the tradition in the 'lean years' is admirable; a reminder of values that may come from the past but are possibly even more relevant now.
Sadly,I won't make the ceremony this year but then you will won't you...which sums it up.
