Bagpipe music

edit

There is a tune for bagpipes called “Battle of the Somme”. It is referenced in George MacDonald Fraser’s The General Danced at Dawn (1970).

The relevant quotation appears on-line in The Queen's Commission: A Junior Officer's Guide (referenced today), near the bottom of p. 115, but I have been unable to discover the meaning or significance of ‘See’s the key, or I’ll roar up yer lobby’.
