  Well we have just had the Bettshanger brass band on the above show on I.T.V. what a very good band they are and now they have a DVD out in the shops.I have said this many times over the years we have in East Kent some of the very best talent there is in the U.K. And at this very time I am talking about geting alot of it on show in 2012 but there is still a very long way to go on that yet,I did not get it all right last time as you all know but I am trying again.But well done to the Bettshanger band today and just great to hear and see them on the T.V.

  As is the Snowdown Colliery Welfare Band . Have to get the name right. They are opening the Kent Miners Festival again this year and well worth a visit just to listen to them.
