Hello Chiffers! (or Fipplers if you prefer )
I haven't been around in quite a while. Thankfully, it looks like some of the regulars are still here to help us newbies out. (How many years until we are no longer newbies?) I'm still playing the whistle, and in recent months have been enjoying it much more. Thanks to the folks here who have helped me, some going above and beyond, I didn't give up. Such a simple instrument has had quite a learning curve, mainly about myself and how I'm my own worst enemy.
Hope you all are doing well and enjoying these little pipes with holes in them.

- Tell us something.: I'm a fiddler and, latterly, a fluter. I love the flute. I wish I'd always played it. I love the whistle as well. I'm blessed in having really lovely instruments for all of my musical interests.

Nice to hear from you again, Mr Ed. And I'm very glad that you're still tooting away on one of "these little pipes with holes in them".
