Not being funny when I say this. When you say 3 times world champion is that all the world or as the Americans are so fond of saying"world champions" when its just a event for them (like the world series baseball where its only americans involved)
As I have heard scots band claim they are world champions several times! It can be confusing like with American football, where they claim world champion games when its pretty much football (soccer to you lot) every where else.
I do get confused with this and never get the sub text. Is it world champion highland band or some American school thing?
I am waiting eagerly to be impressed.
