Bagpipe history, Nero and “The Mad Piper”.

Bagpipes are iconic, and strongly associated with Scotland and Scottish culture.

But what do we really know about where they came from? Why did they become so popular in this part of the world? And how did they save the life of Bill Millin, “The Mad Piper” at the D-Day landings? dday80 #dday #ww2

Follow my adventures as I travel through the landscapes and history of Scotland. I make quick, quirky and (hopefully) funny content about Scotlands past, people and scenery.

I look for the hidden stories, forgotten people and beautiful scenery of Scotland and try to find the funny in the darkness, obscurity and occasional absurdity of our history.
