 Some arse has been playing bagpipes outside my apartment for the last 15mins and is starting to piss me off.
The only thing thats stopping me telling him to STFU is the fact its cold out there and he is wearing a skirt so must be cold

No, he walked down from the centre and over the bridge to the Lowry Hotel, but he stopped on the bridge for ages just playing. Loads of people were following him so think it might have been some Christmas works doo or something.

Probably because it isn't a national thing for you, it is for us. I've got the Flower of Scotland on bagpipes playing just now

nah, not through there. Not really anywhere to come from, and doubt they'd be going to the Lowry after.
I think he was playing some Christmasy type tunes so probably just a large office going for an Xmas meal there.
