Oops,sorry deep,our post's must have crossed over.
You know,I am a woodwind fanatic,strings are good though,anything musical really,Metronomes,old brass and woodwind I am especially interested in.I am going on the course in Wales next May and this shall teach me enough to repair on a professional level-and then I can legitimately become a Professional member of Namir! (though I am repairing already)-I have lots of tools to buy :o Mandrels and such lol!

Wonderful! Shall confer with OH as to when we can come over. Have you easy access for a truck and trailer?

Access is ok,though you must have a 4wd-nothing much else would go down there,if you give me some notice,I can have them brought up to the top-as would be easier both ways :)
-
Hi Mel, we'll be looking at Thursday all being well. We have got a 4WD but we'll do as you advise and collect 'at the top'
Would you PM me with your address inc postcode so we can organise?
Thanks so much and so sorry things haven't worked out for you.

Hiya, how many scaffold boards have you got and how much? We may well have a little look over whilst we're there if that's ok?

Mel's chooks and geese are gorgeous and really brimming with health. Many shiny feathers ;D
We picked up the two tanks today and met Mel and saw her setup. She's put an awful lot of work in and it's sad to think of it all being sold off. Good luck with it all hon :fc: . Hope the instruments prove restoration worthy.

Oh, Mel, you must have put your heart and soul into your land. I am so sorry you need to move.
When you are settled could you make a new chanter for my pipes? Or repair the split one?

Kind regards
Mel :hug:

Unfortunately one is an Asian thing-or at least I am certain it is,it is a Banjolin,the strings which are on it play ok-al three of them, though,rusty tailpiece and geared tuners going a tad rusty.
I would put it on ebay,but I really do not think it is worth much at all to be honest,send me a pm if you're interested :) :hug:
