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.
Steve, you can not hide anywhere in this day and age mate! I saw it in Kates Australia Post mag, i thought i know this bloke, he brings the beers each practice night, good work Steve!
