UHI Celebration - 7

The pipe band was led by the drum major.



To the uneducated, this is merely a ceremonial role. In reality, the role is most important - similar to that of the MC at a Solemn Mass. The MC might appear to do very little, but that is because he has organised things well. A poor MC will look very busy, because things are in such a mess!

This drum major was in full command of proceedings and the procession went without a hitch. The processional route passed St Andrew's Cathedral Inverness, which has more right to the title of 'Highland Cathedral' than Dunblane Cathedral!
