Already October….Meow !

My big sis, Zara and I cannot believe it’s already October…during Level 3, we are open 9.00am - 5.00pm Monday to Friday. It means Daddy and Mummy have lots of time in the morning before they go to the showroom/workshop. Daddy is happy to practice a tuba every morning…Sorry, our neighbours. For both of us, we got used to the sound of tuba…Toot toot 😹

Monday, a new shipment of Gonzalez reeds arrived safely from Argentina. It’s good to see lots of reeds in stock. Please remember the Gonzalez reeds are chemical free reeds and good for your environment and your lips and available from DR TOOT only in NZ….wow !

We also heard Daddy and Mummy were talking about “Laskey” Is that a name of a new cat or virus ??? Noooooo, Laskey is a name of a mouthpiece ! They were famous before and closed down as the owner passed away. Then, they have a new owner…the mouthpieces are back on the market. They have produced mouthpieces for French Horn and Tuba so far. Some of tuba mouthpieces are on the way to DR TOOT ! Who’s excited ? Of course, Daddy is 😋 They will make mouthpieces for trombone/Euphonium, cornet and trumpet soon !

It was good to see some customers came to drop off instruments for repair/service this week. Unfortunately, no one is allowed to enter the showroom/workshop during Level 3 but in distance, Daddy can talk to them with facemask 😺 and everything is contactless…ummm, humanoid is complicated !

Well, Taka will be back to work tomorrow after 2 months leave…finally ! We are looking forward to seeing him 😸
