    Don’t tell them how bad it is, let’s just find a way to make the trade! Especially if we can find a way to get Scottish weather for Pleasanton!

    That's a difficult choice:

    1) Pleasanton at its worst, 115f (46c) and relentless blazing sun.

    2) Glasgow Green last Saturday, 60f (16c) but feeling colder due to steady wind, and raining off and on.

    For sure the pipes were much happier on Glasgow Green! No desperately putting ice cubes in your bag! (I wonder if UK pipers have even heard of that strategy.)

    Better for the pipes to play flat on the thick wet grass than screeching at 490 on pavement hot enough to cook an egg!

    I’ll gladly take 60F and rain vs 112F in the shade and unrelenting sun.

    Though looking at the forecast, Pleasanton might actually be pleasant this year!
