I truly don't understand why anyone would want to misrepresent themselves in this fashion, or, in fact, even be capable of doing so. Though I have walked several caminos, quickly, completely and never missing an inch, such falseness is something I could not do --I just wouldn't have the strength.
Recently I was eyeing a Ukekle on a shopping site. Within days, images of this instrument, together with an offer to purchase, started appearing on many sites I frequented. It was a bit scary, a real eye-opener. However, I resisted and they have finally stopped.

Wow, you touched on a lot of personal things there! Love bag pipes.... I've been talking about Eunate for weeks ( for various reasons ). I have several pairs of Docs, including a rare silver pair I'm wearing in that video on my blog--extremely comfy but no way I'm bringing them on the camino...
Very interested in hearing about the musical instruments other pilgrims brought on their camino. What did you bring,,,flute?, fiddle?, drum?... please tell. And how did it work out? I brought a guitar and you can read about it at http://steeltownpilgrimamusicalpath.blogspot.ca
