Weekly Update 21-12-16

If anyone is looking for a piano tuner in Sheffield (and Yorkshire or Derbyshire), now is your last chance to make a booking before Christmas. I’ll be taking 3 days off during New Year’s Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day, and will be working usual hours from Tuesday the 27th. This is the first time in 5 years that I’ll be spending Christmas in Sheffield – I usually spend it with relatives in Robin Hood’s Bay (a small fishing village between Whitby and Scarborough). I will probably be there for a day or two around New Year, so if anyone around the Whitby and Scarborough area who is need of a piano tuner, I will be making regular visits to the area again soon.

This week has been busier than I anticipated; I expect many people have realised their pianos could do with a tune for the Christmas and New Year’s celebrations. Yesterday I was working from 6 AM until 9 PM, piano tuning in Sheffield city centre (another job at the Cruicible Theater), Ecclesfield and finally a drive to Rossington in Doncaster to tune a piano recently purchased as a Christmas present. This morning I had another drive to tune for a regular customer in Blythe (just a few miles south of Rossington, Doncaster), then had another two tunings in Sheffield. The new couple of days are looking less busy, however. If anyone needs a last minute piano tuning this week, I could fit you in either tomorrow (Thursday the 22nd) evening or on Friday in the afternoon.
