That is amazing! Pipes are incredibly difficult to play and to dance around while you do it is beyond belief~

Still easier than playing the pipes while marching through a battlefield under enemy fire.

Got me there. But... it's rare for a woman to play them at all because of the torso. An opera singer would maybe have developed that strength, few other female disciplines would do that. Although... soccer and hockey might do it.

Being in Scotland helps. There's loads there. Come over, you'd love it.

I always thought I was part Scottish (grandfather was a Maxwell) but... not in the DNA. Still, that's a bucket list item for sure.
