The pipes are cantankerous anyhow, and have a way of misbehaving in a way they've not done before, and at the worst possible time. That's IF you do everything you're supposed to do, take every precaution, do all the preparation that 40 years piping has taught through many mishaps.
As if that's not enough, sometimes I do something that's just plain stupid.
The worst for me is plain forgetting stuff:
-showing up at a wedding without my kilt hose
-showing up at a memorial service without my kilt
-showing up at a memorial service with the wrong pipes
Wrong pipes, eh? Didn't know. Call me ignorant or uninformed, but i thought one set (Highland Pipes) was the same as another.
