Dickie Normuss Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 Did anybody else watch any of the last night of the proms 🤔 Always a good watch, Green and pleasant land and the National anthem were good, but land of hope and glory was amazing, brought a tear to my eye (literally). It's that kind of spirit that unites a nation and gets us through wars, was very moving. It's at time like this that I love this country and am proud to be British >just thought I'd share that with you Seek forgiveness, not permission. Dont need to rob the bank now, they've lent me the money!!! Look out, I'm armed and dangerous!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tam Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 We watched it in a slight state of inebriation (boy, that's a long word for a Monday morning) 😬 Brought a tear to my eye too - great stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buda Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 alex, agreed, although I would also add a graceful passing of the ark royal with crew waving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve-B Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 as a new resident(7 + years ago) from america, i must say that the final night was stunning. england has *everything* on other countries because of things like the Proms..... ❗ ❗ and the music was lovely as well, got to hear some bassoon and english horn solos(my old instruments) which didn't suck, either 😬 ❗ Steve B Big Black Beast^3 SV VHPD Join us on the USA 2005 tour......HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
