Hi Everyone, I wonder if anyone can help with this: I've just insured my gurdy through Allianz (it was a very good quote), and as part of the deal they've sent...
Should be fine if you use as directed. It only needs a little, I believe. It does contain iso-alcohol however so care needs to be taken with the finish. I'd do...
Hi. I recently heard the New St George Waits playing hurdy gurdys and was captivated. Although I have no musical background apart from recently taking up the...
Hello, There have been a couple of complaints from people who used the cheque option as payment for their tickets. The cheques go to Paul Sherwood, who then...
Hi Neil - I'm not far from you, between Cambridge and Newmarket. Why not pop over and I can give you the opportunity to have a go on a gurdy and answer any...
Hi Jo. Considering your recent interest in the H-G, you might like to know of an event close to you next week-end. Danse Herts, a group of folks with a passion...
Thank you so much, this is better than I could ever have hoped! I live in Ickleford and will gladly come along. It is unlikely that I can buy an H-G for a few...
I don't know if anyone is interested but I started a new section on the bulletin board (boo...hiss!) for instrument reviews. It might help people starting out...

I started May Day on the stroke of midnight (as I do each year) with a loud rendition of the Padstow 'Obby 'Oss tune on my Anglo concertina (doesn't fit or...
If I'm right, unlike a UV marker, this doesn't leave any marks you can see. I hate those UV pens. As a smoker, I find it soon becomes rather obvious where your...
Yes, I have a standard Gotschy Phoenix and absolutely love it. I've written a review of it (plus a bit of background about why I got it) on the BB. No point in...
Hi Kay, Although sound is priority in an instrument you also have to like the look of it too, so I can fully understand that it's the look of the Abraxas that...
Hi John I have exactly the same deal with Allianz and have used the Smartwater on gurdy, dulcimer and guitar with no ill effects. On the gurdy I gave a swab on...
Just out of interest, could I ask how much you are paying for insurance through Allianz ? For £4000 of cover, Allianz wanted £111. Having searched around,...
Snozz are you doing the right quote section? I just tried and they are the same almost as Alliance. You need to go the the other instruments part not the...
Hi All, Thanks again for the advice. I strongly suspect that it's a requirement of the policy so I'll take a deep breath and start marking.... At least I can...
