24 May 01 - 04:47 PM (#469771) Subject: Anyone know Fred Rose From: GUEST,Mike Ireland Hi All. I trying to get details about a Fred Rose in Colne. Lancs, Uk. He makes fantastic D whistles in blackwood etc, silver rings tunable. I was at a folk festival in Girvan (Scotland) and came across three people who had his whistles. I got some details about him but I'm after more. I want one of his whistles. Thanks Mike |

28 May 01 - 05:23 PM (#471893) Subject: RE: Help: Anyone know Fred Rose From: GUEST,Bardford This just came through in a Dale Wisely message to rec.music.celtic, so you might want to give the Chiff and Fipple another try: Fred doesn't have a web site yet, but he can be contacted by e-mail. His e-mail address is just about to change. This is his new address which should be working now or within the next week or so : fredrose.whistles@virgin.net You can also contact him on his home telephone number: +44 (0) 1282 868554 That is a UK number, of course. I warned Fred that he may receive international enquiries and that his phone might ring at 4 in the morning, and he said he didn't mind...but of course, please try to be considerate! :-) If you prefer to write to him in the old-fashioned way, you can address your communications to: Fred Rose 22 Atkinson Street Colne, Lancashire BB8 8AT, England, UK.

I'm on the Chiff and Fipple emailing list so I hope it will catch up shortly. Dale does such a good job with his site. Your right Sorcha - Mudcat strikes again. Its funny I told someone recently that I had to go halfway round the world to get information on someone a few miles away. They laughed but I was right. Thanks again. Mike |

They are both fantastic products and are wonderful feats of craftsmanship......they also sound very very good. he now has a website www.fredrose.co.uk |
