Alex,
An X Marker and a friend of mine Andrew Lenz has a site all about taking up piping as an adult. It might be a useful one to take a look at:

Aye. Thanks, Jamie. Take a good read, but it'll take a while to get through everything! And keep in mind that my site has testimonials from two former piping Gold Medalists, a former piper to the Queen Mother, etc. I try to be very objective and provide different points of view and reasoning so you can make up your own mind after being informed.
Cheap pakistani practice chanters are almost always more harm than good. An instructor is an excellent idea, teaching yourself is typically cause for alarm!
A lot of the self-taught pipers are the reason why some of the public hates bagpipes!

Andrew
