Maybe - but Scotsmen and Ulstermen play them a lot worse that
Galicians and even Greeks. It's only because we've heard 'Scotland the
Brave' and all that that we have even heard of swollen sheep's bellies
with some bones stuck on top (the drones and the chanters). I do wish
they had left them behind. Do Basques play sheep's bellies?
