Across a windy and wet Caledonia The Giant Piper has asked Von Bergmann and the Duc de Padirac to accompany him to see something of the Country. They have travelled across to the West to the vicinity of Ayr. There they depart from what passes for a main road and make their way to Alloway.
The Giant piper has distant relatives in the village , namely William and Agnes Burness.He has been unable to contact them for some time with all the campaigning of recent times. Von Bergmann and the Duc have been left in a local inn whilst The Giant piper goes ahead. He returns some time later with the news that Agnes has just given birth to a son, is exhausted but offers hospitality to these esteemed guests. The father of the child has brought a lamp and pony and will guide them to the cottage. Our gallant Tradgardlanders follow filled with joy at the birth and a sense of who will this child grow up to be and what sort of world will he know…

All of his friends in Saxe-Bearstein are glad to hear that Pipe Major Sean MacLeod is well and active.
(Note for those who do not recall, he stands 6'7" and weighs 280 lbs (over 2 meters, 127 Kg) and there is no fat on his body). The figures is 34mm to the level of his eyes . . . a giant indeed.

Good to hear news from Caldedonia -the silence was worrying.
Maybe we'll soon also hear of Frivolous Fiona? Now, she may not be the only female agent in the theatre of operation: this image was reconstructed according to crude sketches and descriptions in several soldiers’ letters...
Then, what about the Shetlands, Ny Tradgarland and the Nicobar?
And a lovely LASS she is!
