Hi Pater, Oh, OK...I understand. Well, as long as you say it (type it?) with a wink! I think I was also half-hoping you'd found something that hasn't yet ...
You can post your message at the WireHarp list as well because there are people there who are interested in bray harps and play them. Here's a video of Therese...
