I have been trying to sort out all sorts of bits and bobs in the past few weeks and I found this in my mission to chuck out truck loads of 'truc'. It's the badge that was on my arm when I was a Boy Entrant joining the R.A.F. at the rare old age of 16! I was a piper in the band for about 14 months of those 18 months training to become an aircraft electriction and it's been hidden for all of that time!
I have been trying to think how to present it and a bit earlier today I saw a 'book mark' that I had cut years back that I thought would do the job? Both the book mark and the base are tiny bits of Russian olive, a false olive with HUGE thorns, that was growing in our garden.
The bedge is just about 2 1/2" high. It don't arf bring back some memories, including playing as the lead to the 11th Nov 1961 parade through Cardiff and playing in the 1/2 time at an international football match at the Cardiff City Stadium.. I bever was very good, but it waas a fantastic experience. I still have my practice chanter. It seemed to stick to me when I left St Athans, South Wales, to join the real world
