MBBF To Meet Over Marston Dam

The Meaningless Brass Band Forum have announced that they are to hold an extraordinary general meeting about the incident at the Marston Dam Entertainment Contest.

We had feared that an unreserved apology from those concerned would bring an end to the matter, but, to our ongoing delight, it seems the story is set to run and run.

MBBF spokesman Elsie Taplady said, "We will be holding a meeting on Monday night at a top secret location somewhere on the outskirts of Barnsley to discuss the actions of MBBF members Mason Maudsley and Maudsley Mason at the recent Marston Dam Entertainment Contest".

"We will then report our findings to a new committee that we have formed and have decided to call the 'Executive Committee' for dramatic effect. They will probably meet later that day, or on Wednesday, or later in the week, and someone will make a decision some time after that".

Someone we met at a contest last weekend gave us what they thought was Mason Maudsley's mobile number but he won't pick up when we ring. Meanwhile, the Bandstand understands that Maudsley Mason is currently on a caravanning holiday somewhere in the Lincolnshire wolds.
