Name that Tune
Roddie was the local Piper. It was his proud
boast that he could play any tune you could name, although some of his
critics would tell you that Roddie blew so lustily that all his tunes
sounded alike.
The big night of the year had arrived and Roddie
was playing his solo at the town 'Store' Concert. He blew and blew to some
purpose and his selection was greeted with great applause. To the
accompaniment of shouts of "encore" a voice was heard from the back of the
hall "Gie's 'Hieland Laddie' Roddie!"
Roddie's smile of satisfaction suddenly
disappeared. "Whit" he cried "Again?"
