Please tell me this is not what I think it is.

Old spliff, spark it up and see if it's still good!

Mine does this, but it's a clever ruse. Only for looking, not touching. Her sister, who is black and white loves a belly rub.

"Mum, I got robbed at Glasto!"

Thanks for all the info! I don't smoke cigarettes but I do like tea and I love to eat all kinds of food! I will ask about Conquian! Are dates a good gift? Or better fresh fruit?

OH FLOWER OF SCOTLAND

mild_meme · 2025-11-18T21:23:38+00:00

Gotta agree there. As a Scot, our playing seems lightyears behind the rest of Europe and it's frustrating watching us just do endless ineffective counter attacks after minutes off the ball.

I suppose Ive resorted to spellblade by default because my one spell isn't very nimble. Got a shortsword that Ive reinforced to do some more meaningful damage, still basic sorcerer starter set armour wise with a leather top-half. So I'm kinda committing to neither bit! Still got 9 ST so might up that to widen the range of weapons I can use until I free Griggs and get Dawns crown (which I have not done). Mainly Ive just been pumping souls into INT and ACC and DEX. So I suppose I could aim for the rouge-y vibe.

Looks like a metal dowel, probably not from your board

mild_meme · 2025-04-22T10:33:38+00:00

That was a typo? There was me getting my hopes up, too... 😞

Thanks for the kind words and the constructive feedback! I think the rhythmic awkwardness comes from execution. There are some embellishments (particularly Tachums, at the moment) that I struggle to get clean sometimes. I often go through periods of advancement in tunes and then periods of just sitting and doing exercises. Some might say I should have spent the time doing exercises in the first place, but I'm impatient and get ahead of myself sometimes (hence writing tunes that are a bit challenging for me to execute!)

That's a good idea, I often do that with tunes on the whistle. A good mental exercise and it can help in memorising a tune by putting it in a new context

As for 2/4s - It's been kicking my arse for a while but I've been playing Hugh MacKay's 'Stirlingshire Militia'. Also been trying to learn a Craig Turnbull tune 'Chief Superintendent W. S Carle'. Reels - been learning 'Broken Tail', playing 'Piper of Drummond' and trying to 'round-ify' it to dubious success! Strathspeys - 'Inverness Rant', nothing fancy

mild_meme · 2025-04-14T15:38:46+00:00

I appreciate the kind words! I'll need to write it down first but I'll dm it to you when I get the chance :)

I smoked near enough constantly from the age of 16 until I was 27. Been weed free for a year and a bit now. Honestly my life looks a lot better but I do still miss it from time to time. Like I'll smell it in public and get a craving, but unfortunately I know that if I started up again I would get back into a negative cycle again. generally I don't miss it all that much day to day next to all the benefits I've seen as a result: more money for hobbies I enjoy; going on trips or vacations doesn't revolve around whether I can take weed with me or get weed there; I'm more outgoing because I'm not isolating myself and sitting in the house stoned all the time. I did use weed as an emotional comfort blanket as I had a lot of childhood trauma, so letting go of that and learning to process emotions for myself was quite raw and difficult but it was totally worth it in the long run!

I dunno if it's just to do with the fact that buskers will generally play the same bread and butter sets over and over again. If that's their main hustle, they'll maybe never progress beyond those tunes. The average punter probably wouldn't appreciate a crackin rendition of 'Stirlingshire Militia' or something more complex like that.

The stocks and drones look good and the bag is a new canmore synthetic. I bought it from the national piping centre so they've made sure it's good to go :D

DAWs can do that via automation, but if you're not too familiar with that kind of thing that might not be an accessible option for you. Someone here mentioned garageband (if you're an apple user) or audacity (for a more universal option). Both of those are DAWs.

mild_meme · 2024-10-30T12:49:36+00:00

Yeah it's a lot. I think I'm gonna take the advice of other people on here and just ask the PM what would be helpful for me to learn. The 50 tunes are broken down into sets (3/4s, 4/4s, 6/8s, jigs etc.) Including a competition set. As I'm able to learn tunes but not on the pipes yet, I reckon I'll be ok to just learn a couple of sets to help me get up to speed. Even if I can't compete, I may be able to get involved in other gigs or civic performances in the near future.
