Hall Of Fame
Listed
below are people who cut their musical teeth with the mighty Ferrets, and have
gone on to do things almost as insignificant.
Patrick Moore 1953-1956
Patrick became associated with our percussion section when one night whilst filming
sky at night on the grounds of the Chutney Mine in Pity Me, he fell into a marmite slagheap. The film crew ran to raise the alarm. The rescue officer that night was Brian Bluetit the bands bass drummer. Who after pulling Patrick from the sticky marmite convinced him that signing for the band on Xylophone would be a good career move.
Far More illustrious than poncing around talking about Gas Giants and Solar
Flares. ( Although he would spend his time with the band stood behind the Bass
Section Avoiding their Gaseous emissions ). Patrick agreed and stayed with the band for three years until a nasty incident with a local lady of the night
a tub of Swarfegar and a oversized croquette mallet.
Hilary Briss 1975-1981
Hilary was Pity Me's master butcher and played Bass Trombone for the band. A generous man he would always bring the most wonderfully tasty sandwiches with him on band excursions and gladly pass them round the lads. After meeting Mrs. Briss he moved south to a place called Royston Vasey and set up shop there. But his whereabouts are now sadly not know. Hilary if you are you there the lads would love some of those sandwiches.
Lord Chunkington Smyth Farquas Hufford 1992- Present
Lord Hufford is the Laird of the Glen and part owner of the Chutney Mine although the Cockwinkle's still own the other half. Lord Chunk as he is affectionately know in the band is our resident BBb soloist and regularly entertains out audiences with not only classic playing of fiendishly difficult bass solo's but his ramblings about his fathers massive collection of ornamental torture racks and pomfrets. A favorite with the lads he is always willing to whip his cock out at any time and have intimate relations with anything that comes to hand. Normally his favorite jar of kidneys.
Barbara Woodhouse 1968 - 1972
Although not strictly a brass playing member of the band. Barbara was crucial in the day to day operation of the band. In a strictly morale boosting capacity. Barbara was the bands Principal concubine. She was an internationally famous Pink Oboe player and was engaged by the bands tour manager Eric Custardflicker after a chance encounter round the back of the Abuja Kings Dancehall in Muskrat Falls Cambodia. Eric was so taken with Barbara's deft skill the the Pink Oboe she was hired immediately. A very domineering character Barbara enjoyed entertaining the lads with dog collars and leads, after half an hour with Barb the lads were set for the week ahead. Thanks Barbara.
