Family Day - 3, Highland games

I take full credit for introducing Highland Games to Mongolia. We had hammer throw, braemer stone and caber toss events which were hugely popular.

This would have been the ideal opportunity to build and learn to play those bagpipes you keep talking about. The desert would swallow the sound beautifully!

Swallow that sound, not even sure that is possible.

I think we should ship over Paul and his accordian...

You could always take a cat, jam it under your arm, rump forward, then squeeze with your elbow and pull the tail to the beat of the Scottish National Anthem. THat would emulate the sound of bagpipes perfectly.

I think bagpipes are a great idea!

...especially when played with feeling by a Scotsman in a kilt - mmmm!
