    As an Englishman, I never miss the opportunity to have a snide little dig at our Sweaty sock brothers
    But as an English soldier in the guards division, when the bands of the English, Irish Scottish and Welsh came out, the sound of the bagpipes, put another 2 inches on my chest
    And I’ll never forget the experience of looking over Loch Ness on a early foggy morning seeing a stag in the mist and hearing the sound of the bagpipes floating across
    The highlands of Scotland, or exactly what you think they will be except 10 times more Scottish

    Being Scottish is a great privilege and honour, if you like Amazing Grace, then you will love the flower of Scotland or Loch Lomond sang by every Scot who attends rugby/football at our national Stadiums! Scottish pipers in years gone bye, were always at the front when going into battle, many armies fled before they seen them! Yes being Scottish makes one so proud that can bring one to tears listening to us Scots all singing our National Anthem! The world want to know Scotland now after they had watched H potter films? CRAZY!

    Took part in the Berlin military Tattoo in the late '70's in the Deutschlandhalle. Not sure how many pipers were there but I suspect it was at least 200. One of the resident infantry batallions was the Royal Irish Rangers and their pipers are just top notch. To say it sends a tingle down the spine of most British squaddies is an understatement. The pipes vibrate through your bones right thrhough to the tear ducts.
