Lewis Conquer, who often appears at sessions in Essex and is an old friend of mine, does a fine version of the German Piano Tuner.

A bit of doggerel that also employs that little-used word 'pelf'

"There is nothing the world more can offer
To a lover of fortune and pelf
Than to buy this person for what he is worth
And sell at the value he puts on himself!"

How true! (Source unremembered!)
