Glad your G whistle came through! Was going to comment that I'd had a new bass B Flat through recently (to add to my collection of, now 9, lovely Alba whistles). There is an issue with the Alba website submitting orders but I think that's in hand and I know she was massively busy over Christmas with the number of orders that had been placed.

One comment on the use of tape on the tuning slide, though - personally I'm really not keen on it and on one of my Alba whistles it caused the tuning slide to completely seize up, so ever since I've taken all the tape off all of them and replaced it with thread and a little wax which works so much better imho.
