Regional Champs 2010: Yes indeed The South African Irish have really done well this year in terms of the competition band. It was a narrow win, but we will take it. On 17 July 2010 we took honours in the 2010 regional champs finals at St. Benedicts. The results were in and we won over all for the day, as well as 2010 regional champs for the 2010 in both Pipe and Drum Corps. We also as usual took the best Drill, Dress and Discipline this shows our commitment to looking good.

So the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo draws near. Only 3 days till departure and all is still up in the air with regards Passports and Visas. I'm sure it will all be sorted before Saturday. I would like to thank all those people, you know who you are, for making the effort on the kit, the caps, the bags and other items such as passports etc etc etc.

Our forward party has managed to get almost local pricing for goods that side.. Thanks to Andy Dippenaar for this useful information. As we all gather on Saturday at OR Tambo airport, most are filled with excitement as well as anxiety.Faugh a Ballagh!
