Post by: Snoopy on September 11, 2008, 02:26:09 PM
The Piano Tuner has been in the next room for over half an hour ~ he is doing my head in  Banghead




It is worse that the THW practising





And he is going to charge me £47 for the privilege  cussing:

Get him to play something soothing and lyrical when he's finished. It might soft the blow of handing over the cash  ;)
Our used to.

He is not blind, he is the only piano tuner in the village and he played Over the Rainbow when he had finished the scales and things.










I am now 47 quid poorer and have an earworm.

You are showing your age with the "Is he blind" question.


It's some years since the visually impaired were trained to be piano tuners.

No ~ His name is Paul and he was wearing jeans. He also restores harpsicords (sp?) and stuff like that.

You may find it soothing to spend some time in the kitchen, after all somewhere over the rainbow....

Indeed I have no doubt you did but it is no longer the rule ~ rather the exception.

Bit like Onion Sellers Nick. They are no longer all Frenchmen on bicycles. ::)
