Aye,

"Under me kilt laddie" said with a smile and helpful tone usually leaves them speechless but laughing.

The old "I don't have bagpipes, Jethro..where's your banjo?" Is one of my favorites.

thats good

like the orig post too

I usually say something like, "Ah, you mean the highland pipes, or are you thinking of the Scotish longs, or perhaps the Scottish smallpipes with the bellows, though I prefer the Nothumbrian smallpipes myself (with a seven keyed chanter, rather than the more elaborate eleven keys), which is not to say that the Northunbrian half-longs aren't a little sweeter, but perhaps not if you come from Cornwall . . ."

Eyes have by now glazed over. End of conversation.

Minor hijack,

hijack fix...you can order tartan by the yard ( to put over a stap you have) from several vendors on the web...as far as a off-the-rack tartan strap, I've never seen one.
