So very jealous of all these wonderful pianos in such great settings.
So here's my offering. My Kawai ES110 squeezed into my very small living room in my very small house.
So, the good Dr. finally learned you to read and write, eh? Happy to find another fan. for the uninitiated: Barrett BondenKurt Oh Yeah! http://forum.pianoworld.com/ubbthreads.php/galleries/2662692/obrian-books.htmlBut it did take me a little while to understand why you were talking about Dr. Finlay. But I got there in the end. :-)
Enthusiastic, mature, relative beginner. Kawai ES110

There you have me out. Oh, I see, a British T.V. series. In case you're not having a joke with me that I'm not catching, you'll remember that it was Dr. Maturin who taught B. Bonden to read and write beyond, "...making out the watchbill." That's an impressive set of books but I'm rather fond of my much used and abused Norton paperbacks from the 90's with the Geoff Hunt illustrations. Anyway, again, a pleasure to meet another fan. Kurt

Kurt I have those paperbacks too....all of them  One of the few series that both my husband and I enjoyed reading. We also have the book of maps, slang, and a cook book.

The series have great audiobooks too. You even get to choose between two narrators (some people feel very strongly about their choices, too).
Please step aside. You're standing in your own way.

PianoStartsAt33, what skull is it? Just a nice skull from the nearest graveyard. It's size says it's a skull of a 5-6 years old child.

If you ever get a chance to visit Sweetwater, be sure to. Especially during Gearfest. It is far more than a music store.

Excuse the mess, I have young kids. My new to me 1920's Packard, guitars obviously, and not easily seen are saxophones, clarinets, trumpets. I played sax for eight years of concert band and four years of marching band. [img] https://flic.kr/p/Y3DVhR[/img] And then the beater in the garage for the kids to pound on. [img] https://flic.kr/p/YF93UQ[/img] The pics look fuzzy on my phone, I hope they look better for everyone else.

Yes, in the garage. It is in sad shape, it was stored in a barn for years, about a third of the keytops are missing, the veneer is peeling, it's a half step flat across the board, a broken string and several missing hammers. The garage is heated and cooled, so it's not *too* bad, but I do understand the concern. I thought about moving it out to my shop where the bar is and adding a beer tap to it, but I'm not sure how to hide all the stuff I'd need to keep the beer cool.

Hard liquor doesnt agree with me, unless is rum and coke.
I gotta say, I'm jealous of those who have room for a grand piano. Someday, hopefully.
