Bagpipes are a “fully-awake, after the first cup of coffee” sort of musical instrument.

I don't know about today, but Scots of earlier generations usually required a dram or two of scotch to wake up.

No joke.

I am shocked she eats that crap and not eggs, sausages and beans for breakfast.

She's gotta watch her girlish figure, ya know.
