Don’t mess with a tabby !?

As my big sis, Zara mentioned in her last blog, we stayed at the Loft (our cattery) last Saturday and came back home Sunday afternoon.

I suffered a bit of “other cats hissed me” syndrome…It was the Labour Day here on Monday and quiet, so I went to mummy and daddy’s bed room and had a loooong morning catnap under the blankie – that was gooooood J

Then, in the afternoon, a father and a daughter visited us – the girl, who is learning saxophone for a year and renting an alto sax, wanted to try our pre-loved saxophones. She tried the Yamaha YAS280 and YAS480 alto saxes and they liked the sound of YAS480. So, they left with the alto sax ! I greeted them personally myself and thank them gratefully…yes, I am a PA of mummy J

Tuesday, it was a good to see Masaru and Taka again at DR TOOT J They seemed to have had a wonderful long weekend.

Wednesday, we saw a familiar face…a lady with a flute visited us. She was a mother of ex-student. Daddy used to teach her daughter flute, and she wanted to play it again. Her mother brought her old flute for service. Taka and daddy looked at the flute and it was a beyond of economical repair. Then, daddy showed her one of our pre-loved flutes. Taka played it at the front of her – she liked it and left with two flutes (old & new one) …we hope that her daughter enjoys playing a flute again !

The DR TOOT Team has a monthly meeting, which is on the last Friday of a month. So, we had a meeting on Friday. Masaru, Taka, mummy and daddy have a breakfast together and discuss about a few things…and Zara and I are listing…not sleeping J

Some instruments have arrived for repairs and services, including a major work on Selmer Paris SA80 tenor sax (Platinum Service) and bunch of instruments from one of schools in Auckland. It sounds like very busy week ahead of the Team !

For our feline friends in the USA, “Happy National Cat Day !!!” from Zara and Alfa in New Zealand JJJ
