A good night Cumbernauld & Carbrain Community Hub with some pipe maintenance, working on tuning, a bit of chanter practice and some tunes together. 4 of these 6 players started either in 2023 or early 2024! Why not join us some Monday or Wednesday from 6:30pm. #therowantree

What a weekend for members! Some of us took part in #Stirling900 massed bands and parade on Saturday, then Jim piped for Alison Johnstone MSP Presiding Officer of Scottish Parliament and other MSPs at the event marking 25 years since the (re)establishment of the Parliament.

Drookit but a great time. Travel on a bus, then piped Gala Queen & party to the stage, when rain set in! Indoors drier; more tunes upstairs. CCPG has come far in <2 years. To be an actual band, any drummers want to join us?! Or more pipers? Thanks to organisers for inviting us!

A The Muppets character I hadn't come across, Angus McGonagle the Argyle Gargoyle - looks like he could use some free tuition, at Cumbernauld & Carbrain Community Hub on Wed 2nd, 9th, and then Mon & Weds from 14th/16th onwards. 6.30pm. From the young to the not so young, it's not too late to start!

If you are on holiday, I hope you are enjoying it! But for those who are around, Monday tuition resumes tonight (14th), and Wednesday 16th will also be on, both at 6.30pm. This pattern continues for the next few weeks.
