It also features other pipers: Richard Butler, Pauline Cato, Anthony Robb, Rob Say and Andrew Watchorn, sometimes playing together or with other instruments.

To reserve tickets PM me, directions are available.
Please feel free to pass on details to anyone you think might be interested.

If you own a set of his pipes (any type), please get in touch with me soonest as we're trying to get a photo album of them together for presentation on the night.

I wish I could come too.
I have his imitation ivory keyless set. I think he made them as an experiment, sometime in the 70s.
And, of oourse, Colin fettled my other set a couple of times.
But the pipes and I would have to come halfway round the world and it's a bit far really.
Cheers,
Robyn

I'd love to hear how this celebration goes. I'll be home again and without electricity, internet, etc. by this weekend, so I'll have to check back when I have the power.

Best regards to Colin and Ray.
