Swinton Band - rogues' gallery

As well as official mugshots for registration purposes, some members of the band have the misfortune to stray in front of cameras from time to time. Others lack the ingenuity or strength of purpose to hide from Brian when he goes into Snowdon mode (see below!).

We beg your sympathy for these poor victims - though looking at some of them you have to admit they deserve it.....

Maggie getting into training for university at Hardraw!		Just don't ask!!!
Some people show no signs of growing up - Josephine, Ellis, Mary and Megan in the interval of a concert!		Baggage in the hold - Niamd, Ellis and Josephine at Birch - it wasn't raining then!
I'm still not quite clear why Ellis thought this a suitable get-up for band practice - Pirates of the Caribbean??		Anyone would think Mike hadn't been well fed at the workshop he's driven to eating his glasses!
Some band members are content to pose elegantly beside the waterfall at Hardraw...		... while others just have to get a bit closer!!
Most people seem to be having a good time in the Green Dragon...		...but Jessica seems to be making hard work of it!
The contest is for playing, not dancing!		Josephine and Ellis appear to be joined at the hip!
Amazing how a little sunshine brings out the elegant headgear! Derek, Will and Hedley at Parliament Street.

What could be better than a day at the races?		Cornets get organised at Kirkbymoorside
