Redpipes
"Santa came early this year and brought me a new toy! I've got the classic version. The bag gives them a feel very close to real pipes. These are a blast to play with both highland and small pipes sounds. I can now play pipes to headphones and not disturb the other members of the household who like to sleep in. For letting others hear the output, I've added a Roland Microcube amp. The amp adds all sorts of sound effects. Heavy metal pipes anyone?! "

The Scottish Reformation

This year Edinburgh celebrated Hogmanay with a theme of "reformation, renewal & resolution". It is also celebrating the 450th anniversary of The Scottish Reformation. It was the banning of Celebrating Christmas post-Reformation that led to the celebration of Hogmanay in Edinburgh at New Year.

Religion played an important part in the lives of the people in education, health, welfare, and discipline. The Reformation is referred to as one of the most important and controversial points in Scottish history as it transformed Scotland from Catholic to Protestant. It forbade holding Mass, approved the Protestant religion, and revolted against French control.
