More details
I recently spent some time in Guy's Hospital - see http://bigbuzzard.blogspot.com. There are two grand pianos there. One is lovely, the other has seen better days, but would be loads better after a decent tuning session, and a touch of basic maintenance. I'm sure it's not a top priority for the NHS to pay to sort this out.

Comments on this pledge

  • Well it seems I have to do something about this! I really wasn't expecting anyone to find this - I'm amazed that 5 people have. I'll get back to those of you who have signed and let you know my progress, in the meantime, if anyone else would like to contribute to this effort, we could probably still do with a bit more cash, so feel free to continue signing up, if you like.
