This week started with beautiful weather – blue sky and
clear air in Auckland. I can tell you that it was very busy on Monday. Lots of
instruments arrived at our workshop for repairs and services. Also, two instruments
have found a new home J
- good start ! The Yamaha alto sax YAS62
with 62 Neck has flown to Christchurch (the new owner is very happy with the
sax !) and the Pearl flute was picked up by a lady from Hamilton.
Tuesday, it was funny… Zara was not happy (as she wrote last
week…period) that daddy is leaving for Napier with Howick Brass Band the next
day for the NZ Brass Band National Championship, and she brought something for
daddy…It was a mouse !!!!!! Mummy said that it was the first time since they
moved in this house and had not seen for a long time. We thought that Zara is
getting old and cannot catch it anymore….ummmmm, Zara told me after that it was
revenge J
You know, daddy has mouse/rat phobia !!! Mummy took a picture and I asked her
to put it here… J
Well, Wednesday, daddy left home just before 8.30am. All
girls - Shoko, mummy, Zara and I were together as the Team worked well without
DR TOOT J Some
instruments were dropped off – a few flutes, a cornet, a few saxophones by
customers from Auckland, Hamilton, Ohau and Rotorua. I greeted some customers J Thank you so much, all
customers who visited us this week !
A parcel (new stock) has arrived from Japan and another one
is due to arrive here on Monday. Shoko and daddy will be having another very
busy week !
Daddy arrived back home safely from Napier this evening
after a long bus journey. He was supposed to arrive earlier, but the traffic
was terrible!!! He looked tired but was very happy to see us ! He told us that
he played very well. Everyone one of The Howick Brass Band played well and the
band came 2nd - Well done !!!!!
Zara seems to be very pleased to see daddy. She told me that
she wanted to catch another mouse for him, but she had a second thought JJJ Stay warm,
everyone !
