]]> Comment on It’s our 90th Anniversary Year by Lesley Harris (Mrs) http://cosab.org.uk/2010/01/03/its-our-90th-anniversary-year/comment-page-1/#comment-316 Lesley Harris (Mrs) Wed, 24 Nov 2010 20:57:06 +0000 http://cosab.org.uk/?p=95#comment-316 I remember when the Albion Band back in the late 50's or early 60's would play on a temporary bandstand at the Southampton Sports Centre on lovely warm summer days (Weren't they all warm days once?) All the more interesting as my cousin Eric Day would be playing the drums and I would try and catch his eye to show off to friends that one of these 'celebrities' knew me - and was related to me! Congratulations on your 90 years!

I haven´t visited your homepage for a few months. This afternoon I did it, to see what is going in the Cosab. But when I saw Robbies picture and the words "Sad news" I felt very very sad! Not only you lost a good friend, so did I too. It tool me a few minutes to find the right words to leave here. I still have tears in my eyes. He was a perfect partner for me to organize your last visit to Pluederhausen. I would have been very happy to see him again somewhen in the next years, but this is not possible now since February. I am very sad about that. My thoughts will be with his family. Hello my friends in Southampton. I haven´t visited your homepage for a few months.

As you know Robbie was the one that recruited me to the band. That happened in a church in Chandlers Ford back in November 2007 so without him my stay in Southampton would not have been as fun as it now turned out to be. I would also like to mention the trip to Pluderhausen where I got to know him a lot better, like when we sat in the small village pub talking long-distance running. I will always remember moments like that and I feel empty and sad that there will be no more of those moments ever again... I’m very sad to hear that.
