I've just received a buddy request from  "Organ tuner"  I would have replied but his/her reply section is disabled. Is this some sort of scam?
I've never had one of these before and wonder if it's because I really am Billy no mates and no one want to be my 
friend ?  Cry

Just in case any Scottish forumists would like to know, the German for bagpiper is “ dudelsackpfeifer.” Just thought I’d mention it before returning to the workshop.

I can see the "sackpfeifer" bit is straightforward olde English from Germanic origin but what is a "dudel" I wonder? the direct translation offered by Google is dull...

A direct translation is "Dull" but I think its what you do with a pencil on paper when a little bored.  Rolleyes
