Scottish Site with resident bagpipe player

[The Wino]

Our future daughter in law's parents live in North Berwick when the band contests on the coaches start arriving at 7am and the bands start practicing in the road outside their house........they hate it!

Sailed with fellas from the Western Isles a few times. Occasionally one of them had a "Chanter"???(not sure I spelt that right).
Got to like that kind of thing.

Used to be a fella that sailed with Blue Star, they called him the "Mad Piper"
He used to parade up and down the Foredeck playing the pipes.
The Chief (1st Mate), trying to sleep, shouted out to him "Get off the F*****g with those f*****g pipes!!"

Five minutes later, the pipes started up again, The Chief, thoroughly peed off by now, shouted, "I thought I told you to get off the deck with those blasted pipes!"

MP, standing on top of a Samson Post shouted back " Exactly how far off the f*****g deck do you want me to be?"

(The Samson Post is generally a large metal tube to top of which is/can be, as much as 1200mm in diameter (4feet) the top can be as much as 8-10 metres off the deck. It supports the Cargo Derricks, which are used to Load/Unload the ship's cargo.)

One of my bosses whilst I was attached to a Scottish regiment with regards to a trainee piper said it sounds like a cat has got its nuts stuck in door. It was as painful to us it must have been to the cat.

A number of people here on camp suggested that he was either straggling a cat or pig’ or worse he had his nuts caught up on a tent peg

The modern way to play the pipes.

Bet he has no problems socially distancing himself
