A young friend of mine who plays the accordion, as I also do, was passing the local music shop last Friday when the proprietor called him into the shop and handed him a scrap of paper with a phone number on it, telling him that the lady whose phone number it was had a 120-bass accordion (Ladies model) she wanted to give away to someone who would appreciate it as she could no longer play. My friend immediately thought that I might like to have it so that I could give my old 72-bass a long needed overhaul - which I can't do as it is in constant use! Anyway he rushed home and phoned this lady up, "Oh dear, I put it out for the dustmen yesterday..." Hanging is too good for some people, isn't it...?
