It's a little known fact that the Irish actually invented the bagpipes and gave them to the Scots as a joke - unfortunately, the Scots never caught on.

actually -some of them probably were - there were 30 engineers in all that originated from Avro Canada. The lead designer/manager, Jim Chamberlin - was born and raised in Canada however. One of the co-desingers, James Floyd, was actually born in Manchester.
