Bagpipes From the BBC radio series: The Goon Show, episode titled “The Dreaded Batter Pudding Hurler”: > [@](#): > > Listeners may be puzzled by a taxi sounding like bagpipes. The truth is, it is all part of the BBC new economy campaign. They have discovered that it is cheaper to travel by bagpipes. Not only are they more musical, but they come in a wide variety of colours. See your local bagpipe officer and ask for particulars, you won’t be disappointed. ---
