Three church plus the pastor's home - could you do by Easter? As it turns out, Good Friday was open. Yes, can I book them? How much? (it's been about 5 years since they called me - somebody else has been doing them) $xx.00 each. Any discount for the church pianos? No. [I happen to feel that I do just as much, and many times _more_ to a church piano, why should I get paid less?] I'll have to ask church council. {I'm still waiting breathlessly by the phone} ;-} Looking forward to a day off............
