Medals of Honour for the vets.

Each medal represents one year of posting on this forum.

Thank you.

And here I thought you were talking about the Twinke Trust or Okpaki vets

Great Idea Admin, though I thought I was posting before 2011, must just have been that I was reading but not contributing.

Can the man - your earliest post was 'Bagpipes Stolen' in which you confessed to being a newbie on 20th April 2011.

Did you ever find them?

I never realised I had been on here for nearly 5 years 

'Time flies......'  and all that. 


PS 2 to go.

Hi Admin,

Thanks for asking, but no I never got them back, some smart ar**ed little potty poo poo got away with them and probably either dumped them or sold them off the island. 

They were not the type of instrument that you would find being played on the island without drawing attention, and I have a lot of friends living on the island who would let me know very quickly.

The police told me at the time that I was unlikely ever to get them back.  , I was insured so I got some money back towards replacing them, which I have done with a new type called Scotish small pipes, they are played with a bellows rather than blowing. They are better suited for indoor playing than my warpipes were.

I mentioned them in a thread a while ago about the Dubliner Bar in Caleta opening.

I will take this opportunity again to remind any forumer's if they hear of the bag pipes for sale, please let me know.

Cheers All
