And had to laugh one year...

...we're walking down that street between Bank Plain and Tombland and there's a beggar sitting outside the Bank of Scotland with a Penny Whistle and a hat for coins from passers-by. Even just walks up while he's playing a tune, stands next to him, gets out the old bagpipes and "weeeeeuuuuuughhhhhh" starts off with Flower of Scotland at full pelt. Poor bloke just looked at her like "how can I compete with that ?".

I think she ended up getting slaughtered and playing Auld Lang Syne at full volume in the middle of the Ribs of Beef that night.
