Yes, the world is going to change for all of us in short order. We'll all have to find new ways to celebrate, new ways to visit others and socialise. It will be interesting to see what sort of permanent changes happens as a result of all this.
Richard, maybe you could just stroll around town playing the bagpipes in empty streets? That would be kind of cool, actually.

Hey - we can still socialize and observe social distancing and self-quarantines... Right here on XMarks!
That makes a happier St. Paddy's day than we'd have otherwise. Thanks Steve, for keeping us "open for business".

I agree with Fr. Bill we still have each other here and Tobus is quite correct in his assessment but it remains to be seen how much we will change!
To OC Richard and my other piping brethren who frequent this site, https://pipingpress.com/ has a list of cancellations in the piping world. The British Championships normally held in May have been cancelled and there is talk of cancelling the World Pipe Band Championships in August. But if we all stick together we can make it through this, after all people in kilts have made a significant contribution to the history of the world. I'll end this with a quote from my senior drill sergeant in boot camp Sgt. First Class Irwin Birchard " We stick together and we win - NEED I SAY ANYMORE."

Currently we are experiencing the governmental experimenting with mass control. It’s a dress rehearsal for that change you speak of. I’ll fight to maintain as best i can the freedoms I currently believe i have and want not to lose any more.
At this moment however i want to believe in things being done arightly. I can’t however because I don’t trust government to to anything right or righteously. Even by accident. I guess we can hope for that accident ☘️
Go, have fun, don't work at, make it fun! Kilt them, for they know not, what they wear. Where am I now?
