Sorry, no idea about the Romsey Old Boys Band 
We left Boca in August 1992 (about the time Hurricane Andrew arrived). My husband used to work for IBM who I don't think are there anymore...

What next?
- What's your favorite t-shirt?
- What's your favorite American burger?
- What time is it?
Come on people - engage your minds in some deep, thorough, enriching discussion instead of this inane garbage. Challenge your intellect for once...this is all boring me senseless. Offering each other cyber-drinks in your crappy online pub and trying to act like old friends...UGH!!!! I clearly need to go to a forum with higher brain patterns....anyone know the URL for Sesame Street??

You're obviously just spoiling for a fight today. Why not start a thread with a topic of your choosing in TIO where you can fight to your heart's content. You keep complaining about the "inane garbage", so do something about it. Start some intellectual threads and challenge us for once.
Better still, go start your fights elsewhere.
