Please tell Tim there are countless people who learn this instrument, then have to stop, for whatever reason. It happens all the time. At least he had the good sense to realize he didn't have the time needed to devote to the instrument to be good at it. It would probably take him a coupla weeks, maybe 3 months tops to get back to where he was. Especially with uncle Marty helping him at lunch ;-)

I'll contact Loch Norman PB and inquire about those chanters. I can't believe they went so fast. I suppose that's a good thing.
