Hi folks, Was supposed to be going today but something came up. Does anyone know how they got on, I would love to know. It was quite wet up here in Glasgow this morning... not the weather for the pipes. :roll:

News just in - Kintyre Schools Pipe Novice Band have been announced as World Champions! :lol:

Fantastic news and just goes to show the level of piping we have in Kintyre!

Well Done to everyone.

Haven't heard how the juveniles got on yet.

Juvenile band came fourth in their competition. But what does it say about the calibre of our young pipers and drummers and the quality of their instructors that one wee town can produce the first and fourth in the world! A massive 'well done' to all concerned.

The new Novice Juvenile World Champions will be giving a street performance in Main Street at 11.30 pm tonight on their return from Glasgow. Police have just confirmed the arrangements. Let's all turn out and give them a heroes' welcome.

Can I add my congratulations to all those taking part last Saturday. Not only the lads themselves, but their tutors, the parents and all those involved in raising money for the band.

You all have done the wee toon proud.
