Hello from HK
Originally from Edinburgh but have been in HK for the past 26 years. The photo below was taken at the HK Highland Gathering in 1990. I'm the wee one. The taller chap is my old piping friend, Steve McVeigh who sadly passed away not long ago. He was known in the piping world/Gordon Highlanders militaria circles as 'Bugpiper'.

Thanks. We played in the same pipe band in Scotland many moons ago albeit at different times and then by coincidence we also played in the same band in HK, albeit at different times. He was a character and a half. Good memories.
