Thanks for this Bill. I have checked with Fred Davies, CA Sec., and there is one change which is to the time of the concert at Lochaber High School on the Friday. It will now commence at 12.00hrs rather than the normal 14.00hrs. I have amended your post above to reflect this.

A reminder to those attending to contact Fred in advance if you wish to book a seat on the coach up there as detailed below:

Many thanks for that I have shared this with a number of Commando sites using all the updated information on the Archive.

Best wishes
