Best whistle under the shower?
Hi,
my obsession forces my to try out my whistles while showering. I made bad experiences with my Dixon tunable high D. Its toneholes are so small, that the soapy waterfilm closes them rending the whistle unplayable.
Today I took my nontunable Chieftain low D with me and it was gorgeous. The whistle warmed up much quicker than usual and played very nicely. The toneholes are big enough to prevent the moisture to close.
Hey folks, tell me: Am I mad? Am I obsessed?
Cheers,
brotherwind

i am just days away from setting up my swimming pool and spending the warm days floating and whistling and fluting. i will wait for that perfect day to play the whistle in the shower. my wife will be certain that i have totally lost it at that point.
Rose tint my world. Keep me safe from my trouble and pain.

Wow that sounds awesome,i want a swimming pool and better climate.I now have a new ambition.brewerpaul wrote:Sounds like good clean fun.
At my former home we had a swimming pool and I used to love to float at the end of a day with a beer and a whistle...
I dont think the local swimming baths allow whistling i think ive seen it on the list between no bombing and no fornicating.

But I'd rather be whistling in the dark"
That's my excuse, anyway.

I would say the obvious choice for such whistling would be the Water Weasel.
