Autumn is here, and so beautiful!

My routine now a days is to wake up, eat, sleep a little inside and sleep the rest of the day outside on a chair and take in the beautiful sun. it’s not too hot and not too cold. Just right for a beautiful regal girl like me. Us cats have to be aware of our health. I stay close to home so that I don’t get any cat virus that may be around 😼

Everybody here is very aware in keeping their hands clean before and after working on a customer’s instrument. You can always feel safe when you bring your instrument in that it is in good and clean hands. The TEAM at DR TOOT are very professional and do their best for you.

Many repairs are on the table at the moment. All benches are a hive of activity Taka is working on another big project. He is rebuilding a very old Conn Alto Sax. Mio and Jordan are working on flutes and saxophones and daddy is organising everyone and looking busy. He talks to many customers and helps them with information on the many instruments we deal with.

One of the customers was looking for a good European trumpet at a great price and he found one here. Very happy customer now with a wonderful trumpet. I helped of course. 😸

We have just heard that the Hamilton Flute Festival was to take place in 2 weeks time has now been postponed till further notice due to the virus situation. We are all sorry to hear this and hope to hear some good news later. With this horrible virus, many events have been postponed until further notice. We will keep you up to date on and Music Events that we are involved with. It’s not nice for these events to not happen, but for the safety and health of everyone, it’s more important that we keep safe and healthy.

A few instruments arrived this week including two Selmer Paris Alto Saxophones and an Arnolds & Sons Alto Sax and 4 valved Euphonium which has been order from us for a school.

Time to say goodbye and be safe. I would like to ask all cats and humans to please keep an eye open for Griff. He is a ginger, long haired cat that lives very close to us. I think he has lost his way and may need some help to find home. Please let us know if you have heard or seen him. MEOW….MEOW !!
