Piano removals

This evening someone came to collect my piano.

I was very sad but it was a laugh watching two strangers, Jeff and #2boy - Simon- trying to move it out of the dining room, down a narrow hall with a 90 degree turn to the right, out of the door, down three steps, along the garden path and into a van.

It reminded me of the words to a song....

"Right," said Fred, "Both of us together
One on each end and steady as we go."
Tried to shift it, couldn't even lift it
We was getting nowhere
And so we had a cuppa tea and

"Right," said Fred, "Give a shout for Charlie."
Up comes Charlie from the floor below.
After strainin', heavin' and complainin'
We was getting nowhere
And so we had a cuppa tea.


When the piano was in the van we did have a cup of tea
and some of Simon's peanut butter and chocolate chip cookies :-)))
