Santa has come to town !

My big sis, Zara is still counting for X’mas…can’t she have a better idea for her blog’s title ??? Anyway, this week started with a few instruments including a couple of warranty jobs on saxophones. The DR TOOT Team is happy to see our pre-loved instruments coming back for servicing again J One alto sax from Oamaru and another one from Queenstown !

Also, there were an alto and baritone saxophones, which were dropped off last Saturday from Te Awamutu. They were sold a few years ago and came in for the full services. Shoko worked on the baritone sax and Masaru worked on the alto sax, then he tested the both of them. Mummy took a video which Masaru is testing the baritone sax, and put on our google+, instagram and facebook pages J

Three pre-loved instruments arrived safely from Japan. All of them have been serviced by the Team and two of them have found their new home before mummy had taken their photo’s – Yamaha wooden clarinet has gone to Napier and Selmer Bundy bass clarinet has gone to a new home in Auckland.

Not only these two instruments but also a brand new Selmer Seles Prologue clarinet has found a new home in Auckland on Friday and a pre-loved Yanagisawa alto saxophone went to a new family in Auckland yesterday. Coincidentally, they have gone to young talented musicians who goes to the same school J

The last month of a year, December has started…yeah, already ! It seems that the Team at DR TOOT is busy…some instruments have arrived for servicing and more to come from schools soon. A few more pre-loved instruments will be arriving here from Japan soon too !

Today, it was a gorgeous and hot day here in Auckland. I spent some times with Zara outside….of course, still with my friend, leash J. Daddy got dressed into his uniform this afternoon because the Howick Brass Band was going to play a Santa Parade and daddy was playing the sousaphone in the Howick Santa Parade this afternoon. I wish Zara and I could go as Santas little helpers J. Oh well, mummy and Masaru went and had a good time !

3 weeks to go, hehehehe....Enjoy the summer and Happy Tooting, everyone ! JJJ
