Hi Francis,
I joined the NPS in 1991 as expat, the magazine was really the only
contact I had with piping. Later the problems of payment caused so much
hassle I left perhaps 10 years later. I joined the LBPS because they
had payment by bankcard and they were more towards musicology, making
and development so I personally got more out of it than I did from the
NPS.
So far in 20 years I have just managed to visit the Chantry once and
never any competitions, so, I think from my present standpoint, that I
would not really get much from re-joining.
I believed that Common Stock had much more content on all aspects of
bellows piping, and I have not yet heard of any reason, so far, to make
me change my opinion.
I am in no way knocking the NPS in any way, I have no idea what it is
like !, but I have interests in bellows piping that go in parallel and
beyond NSP and its specialized field so for now I remain
yours

How about posting the article here? There are lots of people who are

Hi Dave,
I think you've made quite a good case here for joining the NPS.
