1 month ago Gibraltar Chronicle

Ten members of the Royal Gibraltar Regiment Band travelled to the Falkland Islands for Exercise Tiger Island, where they would join forces with the Princess of Wales’s Royal Regiment Band (PWRR) and deliver musical support on behalf of 3PWRR whilst their battalion were deployed. After travelling to RAF Brize Norton on January 15, the band met the other 20 musicians who would make up a large band comprised of four different regiments’ (Princess of Wales's Royal Regiment, Royal Gibraltar Regiment, Honourable Artillery Company and Royal Artillery) musicians. There, the children were introduced to the instruments in the band and joined the band in marching around the school hall. With most beaches inaccessible to vehicles, the band took a 14km hike to Bertha’s Beach to view the local wildlife, King penguins, Gentoo penguins, sea lions and porpoises. Some members of the band went on a tour of the war memorials at San Carlos cemetery and Goose Green.

On Sunday afternoon, Kieran Trippier will likely lead Newcastle United out under the iconic Wembley arch as the captain of a side who have undergone unimaginable change and improvement in the last 18 months. However, in an alternative reality not very far away, Trippier could have been wearing the red of Manchester United in the Carabao Cup final had his time in Madrid ended prematurely. That summer, following an impressive showing at the European Championship, his boyhood club came calling, Manchester United, then managed by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, keen to build on an encouraging campaign of their own by adding the decorated full back to their ranks.

Tony Mowbray says Sunderland's lack of strikers left him feeling he was sending his team into battle 'without the tools to win' as they were beaten at Coventry City. "I don't know what the opinion of Coventry fans would be of us, but I would think they thought were an alright football team," said Mowbray, who spent 18 months in charge of Coventry before departing in September 2016.

HHS chief Becerra tours Laguna Honda, says ‘stay tuned’ on its fate

He said he also spoke with patients, and that “most said, ‘Help keep Laguna Honda open!’”Will he? But they are set to resume on May 19 unless Laguna Honda shows it has made sufficient progress towards recertification. Some blame Becerra for allowing the threat of closure to loom over Laguna Honda. Her district includes Laguna Honda, which sits at the southwest base of Twin Peaks. But at the event honoring Becerra earlier this month, Melgar asked to sit next to him so that she could “bend his ear” about Laguna Honda, said her aide, Mike Farrah.
