I spent it downstairs in the cellar scanning some photos from Grange Moor&#8217;s band room for the revamping of their website and to add to their <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Timeline of Facebook\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Timeline_of_Facebook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">Facebook timeline<\/a>. I want the history of the band to be a big feature of the new site &#8211; they have existed since 1854 so their heritage is a big thing. The relaunch of the site in time of their 160th year is the plan. Gathering as much information as possible about that time is my aim over the next few months.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, scanning very large photos in two part and slapping them back together isn&#8217;t something I&#8217;ve done before. The first one (2004) took a long time, although the second one (2003) was easier.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20034\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20034\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thomasjpitts.co.uk\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/2003-Dundee-Third-place-National-Brass-Band-Championship-Fourth-Section.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"20034\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/thomasjpitts.co.uk\/wordpress\/2003-dundee-third-place-national-brass-band-championship-fourth-section\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thomasjpitts.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/2003-Dundee-Third-place-National-Brass-Band-Championship-Fourth-Section.png?fit=2598%2C1827&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2598,1827\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Grange Moor Brass Band, Dundee 2003.
