    Also on a totally random note, after some googling I discovered that Sinclair is trying to raise money to open a "bagpipe cafe" attached to their workshop, in case anyone is interested in supporting their efforts. https://www.gofundme.com/f/grace-notes-bagpipe-cafe

    Thanks in advance!
    Sinclair concern themselves with selling instruments. Stop making pens and make pipes. Good pipes. A set of full imitation ivory Sinclair pipes is 2100 pounds. I can buy a set from another maker for 1000 pounds less that are probably a little better totally. I then have 1000 pounds for lessons to get me closer to sounding like the players that have them on their shoulder at the Glenfiddich. What’s the value in purchasing a new instrument from them?

    Greetings Rashad... and to All,

    It was my Good Fortune... by way of mutual
    friends... to have met the good Bore Doctor...
    and to have gotten his most wonderful Bore
    Oil... directly from him.

    And I... too... was greatly affected... by his
    Passing On... and the worry... that his truly
    wonderful tool... which is what a good bore
    oil is... might no longer be available... (??)

    But... I was encouraged... by hearing that
    some of his family members... were going
    to take up the staff... and continue on with
    its availability.

    Any others here... having any interactions...
    with whom ever... might be now running The
    Bore Doctors shop... and... ergo... having
    any first-hand knowledge... of its present
    status??

    All information... greatly appreciated. :-)

    Regards to All,

    Pip01
