Donated set of pipes

Last night Joyce donated a set of pipes to the band. They are a set the she bought when learning the pipes about 20 years ago but haven't been played for a long time. The pipes are made by Christies of Sydney and are in quite good condition.

Sorting through the pipe case was a real trip down memory lane for me with:
leather bag, DRM chanter reeds, cane drone reeds, PB bag seasoning, tartan bag cover, wool cords, beeswax and tie in string.

Thanks for that Joyce!
