I'm sure it was meant to say "Arran and concertina's owners" but there wasn't enough room.
But then again if that was the case it would have been concertinas', assuming there will be more than one of them!

Concertina's what? ..... Concertinas apostrophe's?
I don't get it... -
I'll try to move to that ferry too, then. I have a four or five hour drive off the other side, so I'll be home for an early doors pint before bed and work (
) on TuesdayDerek

OK - we know the ferry a lot of us are catching on the Friday, what about the ferry back? I've provisionally booked one back Monday lunchtime but I don't know ......

I can't see on the website, How much does it cost?

That goes for me too, Helen

Oh I get it now! I always thought you were and Air conditioning engineer!

Derek: Which equals AUD$2.32 a litre. We are currently paying AUD$1.27 which is pretty high for us. Works out around 53 pence.
All that cheap fuel and no Ashes to soak it up with!

Thanks to the wonderous of modern technology we even have airports and planes down here! Fortuantely we don't have your petrol prices!
Oooohhhh! I was going to say something about a cheap shot! but I just paid 98.9 pence a litre for Derv! (nothing cheap about that!)

Hey Morgana
With less than 5 weeks to Arran, you and Martin ought to be thinking about starting off!
Its a long way and THEN you have to get used to being the right way up!Derek

The only sinking would be into the depths of despair on discovering the lack of moolah under the boards.....

Have we any idea of the cost of this set?

What i mean (I think) is the distinction between opening it up unnecessarily, i.e. out of curiosity or somesuch, rather than because it won't play.
Derek

Is this the difference between people who play the concertina and concertinists? I would not have dreamt of taking the thing to bits to "have a look" I suppose a concertinist is interested in the whole thing.
Does look great though!

I'm sure I will have something in common with the rest! (with luck and a following wind!

If you find it a bit scary on your own find a singing partner or even two,the sound from an acapella group is just fantastic,but then I am just a teeny weeny bit biased
Have a look at our web site "Young no more"
Actually he is a lot biased, and also very good.

My ex Morris side (Victory Morrismen) had just begun the process of organising a tour to New Orleans, our thoughts are with everyone there and hope that one day we will indeed visit.

Houston we have a problem, I don't sight read and I have no sound card in my PC....
Derek

You want to be talking to Calmac about coming over on the morning ferry for the trip back!
Derek
-
You very well could be!
I just booked the 1230 ferry too!
I finally convince myself that it had got to be done. I just hope that I can pick up some tunes quickly as I don't go to sessions generally these days.
I could be among the first in the queue as I will be setting off from the midlands on thursday evening. Any one needs a lift with stuff on the ferry? (taking car)
See you all soon
Derek

Well Done Helen!
Now the fun really begins .....

Seconded and thirded from me!
I had the best time and learned a great deal from everyone. It was good that everyone had something to offer.
Chris, what kept you? I was in my local just north of Birmingham at 10:30! (and a lovely pint it was too!)
Many thanks, Samantha (and Dave) for the effort you put in and the hospitality on Sunday night/Monday morning. Did anyone on Arran find out about my sleeping arrangements?
