Re: Dear Piano Repair Specialist
Andrew Queen, came yesterday and repaired the piano in the hallway. it is still a semi-tone flat, but it is in tune with itself! yay!
He is a lovely man and only charged £50.
he will do the Babygrand at the end of the month when it finds its final resting place.
thanks.
