Adventurer 20 - thanks

Hi Helen

Just thought I'd send a quick note to let you know how I am getting on with my lovely purple Adventurer 20 Harp which I bought from you back in January.

I've been having a go learning from both the Harpsicle book which came with it and having quite a bit of success with another book I bought 'Teach Yourself to Play Folk Harp' by Sylvia Woods. I would have asked to come to you for lessons but it is simply too far to travel.

I managed to find a teacher who is sometimes in Edinburgh but comes back to visit her parents not so far away from us in West Yorkshire about once a month. She was suitably impressed by the little Adventurer and was even thinking of perhaps getting a few for workshops and such.

Anyway, thanks again for the harp, I am childishly pleased with it and am enjoying learning so far.

Kind regards

Gill
