Having read that Bryn was poorly, I was wondrering if anyone knew how he's getting on.

Cheers.

Mogs.
Bryn returned my call Saturday,I had spoken with his daughter,previously.
He apparently was taken back into hospital due to his pain,reckons he suffered from Diverticulitious???? Must look that one up,plus the spelling.
Anyway rang me Saturday,sounded chirpy,had a bit of a rough time,but reckons he is on the mend.
Has to go back into dock for further tests,under anaesthetic?? But,all being well will see the lads at Wrexham at the end of the Month.
Dai hasn,t access to the internet,but he tells me his daughter has.
I told him to get logged on with her and see how mant comrades have been asking about him..
All the best to him anyway and hope to see him at the reunion.

Stu & Allan
Was with Bryn 25 on Friday last at Hughie Owen's funeral, he was perky as hell and is on the mend. He asked me to pass on his thanks for all the Forum members and Comrades, friends who sent him get well messages he was overwhelmed with it all. If all being well hopes to see everyone at the Band reunion and Comrades dinner at the end of the month.
Once Many Thanks to all.

Hiya Mogs.
Logged on only couple of years ago myself,so,sorry to say,after 40 odd years was shocked to learn that,lads,can I say,younger than me, had passed on,including H.
Can,t find out much about his last days. rumours say he was into drugs,but he was only a young lad.
Marvellous euphonium player,what a waste.
Lost track with so many comrades.BUT remember Brynn, met him after 40 years last year at my FIRST REUNION,GREAT BLOKE,GREAT VOICE,had a sing with him.
Hope to see him this year.
Take care bud.All the best.

Stu.B.

Hi,
was big H Leonard W Harries? He was a euphonium player in the band and did a stint as band master. He left the army in 1982. He then worked as a brass band conductor of bands such as Parc and Dare (Treorchy) and Lewis Merthyr (Porth). I believe he died August 2003 from a brain heamerage.

I believe he is the man on the left in the photo. I also have a photo of the band.

Diverticulitis - my Mrs used to suffer from this. 'Pouches' or polyps form in the rectal tubing from the stomach to the anal orifice and get infected - very painful (she tells me) and awfully uncomfortable (she tells me). Upside from male point of view 'it kept her very quiet for the time she had it'.

[Moggs 22]

Keith, am I to take it that Bryn is now better.

Dunno, mate, is he talking?

Diverticula are small pouches pushing outwards from the wall of the colon. When they are just present without causing serious problems, the condition is called diverticulosis. It's called diverticulitis when they become inflamed. Very painful.

Yes this is a painful disease of the Bowl which unfortunately i suffer from,and unless they operate to remove the diseased part it is with you for ever,so diet etc is key to not suffering(god i could murder a full English),Re the Photo in an earlier reply yes it is H on the left and i think the other guy is one of the Grimes brothers

[nasher546]

Yes Keith, I think you are right. I think the other guy with 'H' is John Grimes.

Diverticula. I was told in Aug after my 10 year colonoscopy that i had it & was told its caused by lack of Fiber. So if you increase your fiber you should have no problems. Its common in people from 60 +. Remember to drink a class of water when you have Fiber to get the best result.

Hi all,
Bryn 25 is a member of our branch and he is well at least he was at our xmas meeting.
Happy New Year.
BennytheBall and family
