Given the dates of the posts above I very much doubt the person is still around.
However.... if he is... I recognise the outline of that church... indeed.. a mere 3 years later that was the place and the band I first learn to play.
For those not in the know... The outline of the church is the main church at the bottom of the parade square at the Army Apprentice College - Harrogate. A Royal Corps of Signals junior leaders trade and military college.
The "apprentices" there had to choose a hobby to take part in two nights a week of their first two terms. Pipe band was one.
It was supported by a Pipe Sergeant posted in as Pipe Major from one of the (then) many Scottish regiments. Myfirst was a Royal Scot called Stu Burns, the other was an Argyle & Sutherland Highlander called Willie Gordon.
I had a fab time with the band. In my days we had a very full military gig list (ooficers and sergeants mess functions) as well as two or three times a week playing at a variety of civilian functions.
So... I hope that has helped for anyone who wondered about the origins of the cryptic picture!
