Burns nights
The start of the evening usually finds the piper playing as the guests arrive and then playing a call to dinner.
The top table is usually 'piped in' after all the other guests are in place.
The Selkirk Grace is now recited and this sets the tone for the rest of the evening.
No Burns night would be complete without the haggis being 'piped in' and the address to the haggis being read, followed by the drinking a toast to it.
The piper will play a tune by Burns called "A mans a man for all that" and will lead the haggis in followed by the toast master.
After the address, the glasses are handed to the piper, the chef and the toast master and along with the rest of the gathering, toast the haggis in style.
The last thing, before departing "Auld Lang Syne", written by Burns will be played with the sound of many voices singing this very moving song

Everyone was completely surprised by your arrival, especially my Husband, which was the desired effect I was hoping for! It was such a moving moment as you emerged from around the corner, and I know there were a few tears shed. He was completely blown away that I had arranged that for a surprise, and so I thank you for making it possible!
It couldn't have been 10mins after you finished playing when they rung with tears of laughter, to thank us for sending a Bagpipe-agram, as we couldn't get to the party
There are not many people here today, but we wanted to send him off in style and the skirl of the pipes certainly did that !"
Made our wedding day very special with his expert bagpiping and outfit! Will definitely recommend him thank you very much!
A very talented player, he truly uplifted our special event. We enjoyed every moment and he interacts well with the audience
