Striking the wrong note

STRIKING THE WRONG NOTE

They love a musical evening and a sing-song at the Old Folks Home in deepest Yorkshire, but recently their enjoyment is being spoiled by an increasingly discordant piano.

Even two old boys who are getting a bit deaf have been talking about it.

"'Appen my lad could sort yon piano sharp as tha like. 'E's a grand piano tuner, is my lad," said the first.

"Eh?", said the second.

"I said my lad's a grand piano tuner," shouted the first.

"Tha needn't to shout," said the second. "But'll do nowt. Yon piano's a bloody upright."
