    Sorry to hear that you are not able to make it over to Wick and enjoy the massed pipe bands this weekend Paul.

    I have just got back from market square and they put on a great show and look forward to taking the Mother-in-Law to see them tomorrow down at the river side..

    I will upload a few video clips and post them and although they are not professional quality I hope they will be enjoyable for you .

    Default Wick pipe band

    These clips seem to take a while to upload so I will do them one at a time.

    What a treat, thanks Kevin! Highland Cathedral is tied with Amazing Grace for my favourite bagpipe tunes.

    Default River Side

    Sorry Paul, I took my elderly mother-in-law to see the bands and the dancing at the riverside today so I only got one video shot of the bands coming on to the field. It was a fantastic specticle and a great day for the event.
    There where lots of people taking photos and video so I would expect to see some of them posted and I would guess a bit more expert at it than me,LOL.
