A Welcome, A Farewell, Project Updates
By Brian Chesters

Hi there all you automusicians from England.

First, welcome to the new subscribers from the UK, Jeff and Nina Borinsky and Dan Wilson. I am not a member of the Player Piano Group in London so I cant recall meeting you, I am in the MBSGBI, AMICA and the North West Player Piano Association. (And other groups like the George Formby society) I can hear our American friends say George Who?

Well, my red Welte has finally arrived from the restorer who has done a good job, It sounds as good as I would have expected. He had to drill out more than 100 rusted screws and plug the holes. It had got a bit damp in its life. It came from a farmhouse in Wales.

I did my first deal on the net recently, I bought a Play-a-sax and it arrived OK. So it can be done.

Finally, can I add my bit to the Robin resignation saga. He and I would have never have known that We both have a Collard & Collard upright Ampico if it were not for this group. I rest my case.

All the best from Blackpool. (Its next to the sea in England, its got a 520 foot tower in the middle)
