I wonder whether giving up smoking and spending money on instruments was such a good idea given that my house is quite small. I am now resticted to buying instruments that will fit on the bits of wall left between all the above. I do have a very understanding partner who, I think, gauges my current level of insanity against the number of instruments ( and cameras)I have. I think that I had better go check that my insurance is up to date. ( and 2 cats)
