I apologise to those on the list who are not members of the
Northumbrian Pipers' Society, but, as there is no alternative place to
post my comments, I will post them here.
I was sorry to hear of the demise of Jim Bryan. I served on the NPS
committee with him in times B.C.
Things seem to be coming out into the open and it's about time. It has
been dominated too long with one man. Due to this, the society has done
little to promote or encourage the small-pipes; although some tune
books have been published, the last one just a re-hash of the others.
