The pipe band I'm in turns 100 years old next year. We claim to be the oldest civilian pipe band in North America.

IHE claims to be a seer. Brewster claimed to be a good manager. Doesn't make it so.

Bagpipes originated in the far east :004:

I was not quoting you, I did actually mean middle east. I'm not perfect, not quite, yet.

Close.....we have an ongoing dispute with Kincardine over their claim as the details of their unbroken service get very sketchy in the 1950's.

They also show a formation date of 1908. Next year would be 1910 :blink:
