vivdunstan: Photo of my 72 bass accordion (accordion)
Just been chatting in the comments on my accordion tuner's Facebook page with someone who may have sold us one or more accordions at Clinkscales between 1976 and 1981, and also brought down my first accordion teacher from Lanarkshire to work in Melrose. Bill Sharp was my first accordion teacher when I was aged just 4 in 1976. And again later in the late 1980s before uni. Small world!

Mum loves to recall the story of little me in Melrose glued to the accordion shop's windows. And absolutely sure, though aged just 4, that I wanted one. And always going back to look in the window some more.
