It's called the Grey Old Woman of Raasey. Great really old pipe tune.

It's here already though.

BTW. A couple of the other tunes you've submitted you've listed as D major when actually they're A mix, I imagine you've done that to get two sharp's but so has A mix. You can still edit the details of the tunes to the correct key. Also, if you want to find other tunes suitable for GHB here have a look at my profile page there are quite a few linked there.
