It was fascinating. I can’t play any musical instrument, but that didn’t stop me from being wowed by them

Thanks Liz. I was fascinated by the stuff in that shop. There was row after row of harps, lined up in a circle like they were all dancing round a maypole. Must find some more pics for another post.
