I didn't understand why there was this table free in front of the stage. We took it and ordered some haggis. After the second piece of ... "music", I understood why this table was free and why we had no knives... 😁 First time in my life, I really wanted to kill someone and cook him in his bagpipe and feed the swords dancer with this meal. 😠 I think I know that place! Hope goes there to die.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally When I was about 5, I had terrible earache on Xmas day - doctor's surgery shut, so my parents took me to A&E to get antibiotics or something. While we were waiting in casualty, the hospital provided a full Scottish pipe band to 'cheer up' people waiting. Full Scottish pipe band + earache = excruciating agony. Gits! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At all hours of the day and night, or so it seemed. He was one of the characters primarily responsible for me wanting to become a sniper. Him and the receptionist who always used to put me in the room immediately above his "pitch". 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si600 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 We went to an evening of pipe bands and other assorted folksy stuff in Wick on our tour of the NC500. I quite enjoyed it but the thing that really impressed me was the very pretty young lass doing the jumping up and down scissor dancing thing. For about five minutes. Her core and leg strength was something genuinely something to be in awe of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
