    Looking for a piper

    In our Engagement Announcement thread I said that we were looking for a piper as our piper was booked for the day that the chapel was available. I was afraid that the piper request would get lost so thought I'd post here. So I ask the rabble is there a piper that would be able to pipe for us on July 25th in Niagara Falls Ontario at 11:00 AM?

    Please PM me and we will get the details figured out.

    Glen, have you tried John (Scoutniagara)? He is a piper, and he may be available.
    If he isn't, there are the Niagara Regional Police Pipe Band (Niagara Falls) and the Braemar Pipe Band (St. Catharines) on your side of the river. If that fails, get hold of the Buffalo Caledonian Pipes and Drums - hopefully someone will be available.
    I am easily moved for sympathy for dogs, far more so than for humans, because dogs do not understand. There is no way to explain that you will return, that the vet will make it all better, that they cannot go shooting today because that is not what today is about. They cannot work out that their misery is finite and will some time end, and so their misery is magnified.

    I'm not sure how to get in touch with Al, I do have a few people I'm talking to.
