    Introducing myself

    Hi all, figure I should introduce myself. Im Mike from Adelaide, Australia. Ive recently started learning how to play the bagpipes with the SAPD so am still learning about the scottish culture and dress. I figure if im going to get used to wearing a kilt on band engagments I minusll have some fun and get some others and actually learn about what Ill be wearing...

    No direct scottish blood in me, though my uncle-in-law (blood aunts husband) is descended from the Murrays so I supppose ill attach myself to that

    Apart from that, I cant really say much else about me without breaking the rules as my uni degree deals with politics and my job deals with weapons selling, so ill leave that be...

    I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear
