You are encouraged to post comments to the blog as the tour unfolds, and it would be great if tour members could comment on their return too. There is a 'pre-tour' blog entry posted ready for you to visit and practise your comment skills on - please visit and have a go, and if you are curious to see how a blog unfolds, or want to get an idea of what sort of things happen on a tour, then please take a look here.... Dampits. Sudden changes in humidity can cause trouble -especially for string instruments - glued joints can come unstuck and cracks may even appear. You can find out more here.
