Same songs every year….Another
sign that Christmas is close is the amount of instruments in the shop now. Daddy
and Jordan have been out and about picking up instruments from schools for
their end of the year service. It is important that if you are to get your
instrument ready for Christmas, that you better bring it in now. Please make
sure you bring it in before school starts and I don’t mean the day before
school starts.
This week we sold a beautiful Selmer Paris Mark Vl tenor sax to a
gentleman in Tauranga who obviously appreciates quality in his saxophones. He
was very happy and left his alto here for servicing and will pick it up shortly.
It’s all happening in the house of TOOT. Many accessories too have arrived in
from Switzerland, Japan and 2 new Backun clarinets from Canada where Daddy comes
from. These are stock items and are ready now for a new home in New Zealand.
I know that sometimes I sound like a stuck record, but Daddy
has been out a lot again. Rehearsals and concerts. Last night the MCB had their
end of the year Christmas concert in Howick. Today Daddy will be marching with
the Howick Brass in our local Howick Santa Parade….maybe a quick beer afterwards.
Tomorrow it’s out to the MCB social, Tuesday out at a Howick Brass meeting,
Wednesday out to Howick Brass Rehearsal…..and so on…
Well it’s time to sign off so I can spend a little time with
Daddy before he goes to bed....meow 😸 Be good everybody like me cause SANTA is
Coming!!!! 😻
