Happy Tartan Day! And a grand day it has been, let me tell you. Never have I had a happier accident than stumbling over the tartan week celebrations today, except perhaps meeting the Doctor. I was surrounded by all that is good and great about Scotland and its people and some of them even knew me! I had a chance to listen to some fine pipers and pipe bands and I was even given a grand set of pipes as a welcome to our world gift.
I'll be off next week on a little trip. To a place called Nashua, for a Scottish Festival. I'll even be playing in the solo piping competitions. I think I have a fine chance there. We were bandying about the names of songs we can play and I think I know a few that have been lost in the mists of time. Shame that, they're grand pieces but they'll be my advantage in the competitions before I teach them to the others afterwards.
