Sorry for thy delay
It's how (from personal experience) some brits pronounce "paper"

When I was a teenager this English sailor met gal from my building and next thing you knew they were married. Love or residency ... that I don't know.

So one one day as I'm heading out He shouts out:
"Hey Gary! ave you see the piper"
TO which i replied. "I read the book as a kid. Didn't know they made a movie"
So slightly ticked off he blares out "Not the Piper, the bloody piper"

40 odd years it still cracks me up he was almost blue in the face.

Both sounded identical... he meant the local "newsPIPER"

In his defense the poor bloke had literally just come off the boat
