Patience is a Virtue!

In 1979, I wrote several folksong arrangements (for guitar) for a well-known tutor book series. Over the years I have received royalties from the sales of the book, but never any 'mechanicals'. That is, until now. My latest royalty statement contains one entry: 4p due from a broadcast in New Zealand of my arrangement of 'Scarborough Fair'! Bless You, unknown guitarist!

Couldn't agree more Gedpipes, I certainly won't be on the hotline to my financial adviser! Thank G-d my pension isn't linked to my mechanicals!
