Thanks to those who responded. I now have two copies - one in G/D, the other D/A. I am also told it's copyright. I also have valuable suggestions as to why this shouldn't be played on nsp, and as I concur with at least one of them, this explains why I didn't have the dots in the first place. C

Hello John, What a nasty thing to happen to a Northumbrian piper! Luckily, I have no experience of this problem but I would suggest that, after surgery, you seek out the services of a sports physiotherapist rather than simply attending your local hospital's physio. unit. Physiotherapists who
