Well said!
New for me, brianc! But, 'sppose you’re right, it is old. Oh, well!
Don’t fret it too much, Liam’s words are timeless for the most part, IMHO. ![]()

Seven Years Listening
Seven Years Practicing
Seven Years Playing
Seven Years Typing Shight On Message Boards On The Internet
Before you can call yourself a piper.
