Trombone triumph

The five member Old Entomologist Trombone and Equestrian team arrived back from this year's "Oompapacalypse" with the trophy from their class. The Trombone (Equestrian) class was very keenly contested this year and the Rat and Cockle team who won the competition are said to be furious and sad in equal parts. However as team leader Evangeline van Holsterin says "Finders keepers, losers bastards"
There was some criticism levelled at the judges of this years competition by First Trombonist Mr. Smut Clyde who vouchsafed that "the Judges did not seem to understand the spirit of giving from the Old Entomologist team, "You would think that none of them had ever seen a Quince and Tadpole potato top pie before, the way that they carried on." He thanked the experimental division of Mrs Miggins' pie shop, her and her nephew Erasmus, for their efforts, "I know Ras was out at all hours catching good sized tadpoles".
The teams horses appeared to be in good condition and have benefitted from a new dietrary regime instigated by Food Technologist (Equestrian) Another Kiwi who said that "a good mount is a good mount but a horse is a leopard of another stripe" He appeared to have taste testing the Stout based oat infusion that the horses had been having in addition to Whirlsteller Horse Dietary supplements available from Vince Whirlsteller in the carpark of Albies All-Nite Snackatorium on Fridays at 2.17am.
