Hello from Northern New England

[Silmakhor]

Hi all,

I'm currently waiting on my first kilt in over three decades. I played pipes as a kid, into high school, and had to stop in college and afterwards for a few reasons. But I've been re-connecting with that part of my life, and finding out that there's a lot of support out there for people like me.

Kilt is 8 yard/13 oz in Leaping Salmon, knife pleats to the stripe. Being patient is hard, but worth it

Welcome from North Carolina. I’m someone who used to play the pipes, but am no longer able to. So now I just listen. My wife can’t understand how I can turn on pipe music full blast and take a nap.

Welcome from Mount Brydges Ontario Canader. Stick with those pipes!! I am a reborn piper myself. People have been very supportive and appreciative of the abilities of a geriatric piper . The best time to pipe is now!!

I am still piping - just switched over to uilleann pipes a few years ago! I’ve been playing Irish flute for a few decades now and it’s my primary.

Off the pipes for three weeks. They removed a large molar and sewed me up . Being off the pipes hurts more than the surgery!!
