I heard someone recently ask about bagpipes "How do you know when you've finished learning to play?"
I spend half my time tuning my pipes (English, medieval), and the other half playing them out of tune...
I've found that Scots just love it when you point out that the English had bagpipes about 400/500 years before they did. They really do! Goes down about as well as the tune I wrote - 'England the Braver....'
