Nosing Around

[John Ross]

Hi,
I heard from a customer, a more embarrassing one, than that.
Actually, I was
embarrassed, that a piano tuner, would do such a thing.
The woman noticed, that the sounds oftuning had stopped, she
investigated,
and found the tuner, having a bath, in her tub. There are lots of
stories about
 this tuner, so I tend to believe the story is true.
Should we start a new heading? Believe it, or not?
Regards,
