Weekly blog post: update

Another obligatory post to keep people updated on my piano tuning activities. I don’t have much to write about this week, other than that it was my birthday yesterday: the big two seven. I had a meal out at the Wong Ting restaurant in Sheffield city centre and watched all six episodes of the new series of Alan Partridge (which is utterly brilliant).


I had a lot of work in Sheffield and Barnsley last week (I drove there at least four times), including a couple of pitch raising jobs alongside regular piano tunings. One customer in Barnsley generously gave me two bags of vinyl (a lot of 70s punk, post-punk and motown) in addition to paying me for the piano tuning, which seeing as I have a record player but few records, I was very grateful for them. Some interesting music, some of which I wouldn’t usually listen to, but I keep an open mind about music and some of the albums have grown on me. The Clash on vinyl goes down well after a day of piano tuning, that’s for sure.
