Hello Paul and list members,

I was the one who ran the workshop on straw bagpipes, which everyone 
thoroughly enjoyed by the way.  I had learnt how to make these wonderful 
little instruments at Halsway Manor one year when Francis gave a workshop 
there.  From the discussion around the table at that workshop, I received 
the definite impression the Francis would not mind other people spreading 
the word on his straw bagpipes.  Please rest assured that full credit and 
acknowledgement was given to Francis Wood at the workshop that I ran.

One of these years, perhaps Francis will come to the Pipers' Gathering and 
give the workshop himself.
