Concertina mermaid

[Daniel Hersh]

I don't know if this pic has been posted here before.  I got it from Autumn Rhodes, who says it's by the artist Imogen Speer.

Calling Simon Gabrielow: She holds the concertina like you do!

 

So it's not just you: It's you and a, erm, mermaid.

If you want him to see it, tag him: @SIMON GABRIELOW (he’ll see it now).

Oooh yes.. how proud I am to know that I have inspired a Mermaid!  To play in my revolutionary technique😊😊😊😊😄

Waterproof Glue??

Of course the C bass note is most favoured  (C like Sea ..do you see?)😄😄😄

I did that once, with a melodeon rather than a concertine, and with male nipples. Bloody hell it hurt.

Looks like a German style anglo to me - bellows in three sections separated by two wooden frames.

She’s left the strap fixed across the top to hold it closed.

Well, all I can say is if my revolutionary method of barely holding concertina has inspired a mermaid ..then it can't be too bad choice, I say😊😊

The first year that the NorthEast Squeeze-In (NESI) had a Limerick contest, this was the winner. I’m sorry, I don’t recall the author’s name.

 

The poor lady who plays the Chem-NITZ-er:
What a nightmare to find one that fits ’er.
     On the draw she’s okay,
     Nothing gets in the way.
But on the squeeze the damn thing de-tits’er.

Miz Mermaid appears to be enjoying herself however.....😏

[SIMON GABRIELOW]

Mermaid wishes to respond ( I let her use my own account to do so)...!

It is nooo good.. I shall have to respond !

I am the mermaid in that picture and was taught to play by a well respected Neptune like person.. and by the sirens  of ancient times and myth.

And I am always very careful when playing my concertina, I will have you know!  I lift it well away from my person, in a dignified manner.

I also run a stable of Seahorses that play flutes.😊

My money is on Jody K. 😆

[David Barnert]

I’d remember if it was Jody, whom I’d known for years at that time. It was someone I didn’t know.

My need to answer questions here are.

 

Why does a mermaid need what appears to be a bathing suit?

And where exactly does it attach underneath?
 

Sorry too baffled by this to move on to question the underwater concertina aspect.

 

[Clive Thorne]

very good points.

[SIMON GABRIELOW]

Poor Mermaid it is all quite sexist😊

I shall write a mermaid tube soon and that will take care of the matter.   Because if you are rude to a mermaid then one needs to recompence by giving an offering🌝

Or you will end up in Goldfish bowl .or even on Neptune's dinner plate!

Wait and SEA what turns up soon!!!!😊
