Gronau 2003
A brief introduction
In 2002 the band joined the Bromsgrove Twining Association to further our links with the surrounding community. As most of the members live in and around Bromsgrove this was our first choice.
We first introduced ourselves when a group of visitors from Gronau in Germany came over to the UK. We played at a barbeque held on the Lickey Hills.
In July this year we went to the Gronau / Losser garden festival with the Bromsgrove twining association to entertain the German and Dutch Hosts.
We would like to Thank the people of Gronau for the warm welcome and there excellent hospitality.
Roberts awaits our departure from Dover.
