There's an old joke about a guy bull-shitting to his mate about his recent 
acquisition of a Bechstein piano .

"Why did you buy it "? asked his mate.

"Oh , I bought it 'cause I was down in the dumps"

"Didn't ask where you bought it ' came the reply !!!!

AF
(From the land where the sky is blue at midnight)
55 degrees north.
66 degrees Fahrenheit.
2 degrees academic.

PS, Thump , I need one of those large thumbscrew type coach screws used for 
attaching the left front leg of a Bechstein B of 1895 vintage.
