What took so long? Were they waiting for something better?

- Tell us something.: I'm a fiddler and, latterly, a fluter. I love the flute. I wish I'd always played it. I love the whistle as well. I'm blessed in having really lovely instruments for all of my musical interests.

Yes, I was wondering about the delay. They were probably waiting for him to move to Scotland, become acclimatised etcNanohedron wrote:What took so long? Were they waiting for something better?
Sounds pretty brave to me, in any case.

I can imagine Liam doing something like this. He's a stand up guy as they say. A fine man

What a great story, such a brave deed!
It always makes me feel petty, small, and selfish when I see others who dedicate themselves to helping others.

Haven't seen Liam out and about for a couple years. At least we now know he was in Dumfries in July. Amazing story.
