Of late I am feeling (along with about 99% of the world’s population, I suspect) very fed up & cast-down by the virus + the apparent helplessness of most of our elected governments to deal with the situation + the toxicity on show the world over – especially on Twitter, which is becoming, frankly, poisonous.
BUT.
Twitter did produce one marvel this morning.
An absolute gem, which I further Googled (in the interests of blog honesty etc etc) and I hereby share with you.
So kindly stop whatever you are doing right now, and, in the interests of world peace and your own mental well-being, watch this video (below).
From my favourite part of India, Ladakh, which is currently the scene of scary military tensions, I bring you the skating bagpipers of the Ladakh Scouts.
Too, too fabulous.
I mean, why wouldn’t you skate and play the bagpipes at 3500 metres?
Don’t you feel better already?
Love it
Crumbs, I’m not sure I could breathe at that altitude!! I got dizzy at 2500m in Utah. They were brilliant. I realised as I was watching that I had a huge smile on my face. Definitely cheered me up. Stay safe.
Good! Mission accomplished, in these dire times.
It was beautiful, and, I liked how the audience showed its appreciation.
Fabulous. Thank you for sharing
Wonderful!I love bagpipes!
Just brilliant!! As one who struggles to stay upright on ice, I am in awe! ???
Scouts?
The Ladakh Scouts
Christine, I got that, so these are schoolboy scouts?
Army, Vikram Tandon. A regiment in the Indian Army
Fantastic. I can’t skate and I can’t play the bagpipes. ?
Brilliant!
Isn’t it fab?
