many people have been stirred by the brave skirl and weird drone of the bagpipes. bring the sound of braveheart to a kitchen near you with the Black Watch mop. hitch your 3 drones over your left shoulder, tuck your little squeezy bag thingy under your right arm and blow through the chanter which is the main stem of the mop. dunk the end in warm soapy water, and off you go. get a bit of a rhythm going – blow, squeeze and mop. blow, squeeze and mop.

*Mental pictures of kilt-wearing Fantasia mops playing the pipes, with a telletubby directing them...*

Which Black Watch? The Scottish Black Watch or the Canadian Black Watch?

This idea reminds me of a scene from The Longest Day, wherein proof positive is given that actors will do anything for money. Quote: "It takes an Irishman to play the pipes!" The actor? Sean Connery.

Bagpipes are a hideous invention, by the way po. So have a big, fat fishbone.

"blow, squeeze, and mop; blow, squeeze, and mop"

Are you absolutely sure that HOME:Cleaning is the right category?

Nice idea po, but it seems ironic that vacuum cleaner makers are eliminating bags and you want to add them to mops.

Is that "Scotland the Clean" you're playing?
