Not any more unfortunately, I am now back in England. Saw some great musical instrumemts while I was over there, mozarts dads fiddle, an amati, and several pianos belonging to people like beethoven, been to vienna lots of times, best city in Europe and fuĺl of music. Believe it or not its cheaper to go there than to go to london on the train,.

I am away again in a couple of weeks though, as now that the restrictions are lifted I am starting to travel again.

...a little creepy for a Venus, but great idea for a pochette! 

Have you thought of getting your hands on one to travel with?

I actually have thought of this, I have a friend who said he would make me one, but I am not too sure anyone in a hotel room or apartment would appreciate it, lol. 

And you have to hold them at waist height, which for me would involve starting again, which at this point I couldnt be bothered with. Its bad enough hearing a recording, It would be really bad hearing what I sound like as I actually play;)

Brings back memories. Although I did not busk playing this, our quartet often played Eine kleine Nachtmusik without music. Somehow this music sticks well in the brain. LOL
