I like the reg key shapes but the wood turning looks crude.
RORY
A set by Doug Wilkinson (rip) and Glen McCarthy and probably originally sold via Lark in the Morning. I gave them details of a Taylor set in their formative years and they translated the square chanter to the round hence the slimline almost highland chanter look.
There's a rowsome copy practice set by Steve and Kim. Any information on these?.
Strong smell of Goat curry on this one and seller is "brians-vintage-collections" of Slough however the origin is considerably further to the east
Tell us something.: I am haunted by Uilleann Pipes. Been so for years. I have an Irish background and have played Trad on guitar in a duet long ago. Just started on the UPs in Feb of 2017!

I wondered too, I googled "steve and kim bagpipes" and what came up was numerous Pakistani-made pipes of various sorts, Highland pipes, smallpipes, uilleann pipes. Run away.

I thought the same, but looking at the keywork on the chanter, it is different to the usual Pakistani efforts.

The best Indian food I have ever had was in London
I'll be in London next month (my first time) and I'm very much looking forward to the world-famous food, especially Indian food.
We have it pretty good where I live- a town called Tustin- which has at last count eight Indian restaurants, a like number of Indian grocery shops, and where one sees people in traditional Indian clothes around town, and where we have a youth cricket academy
