I’m learning on a celtic lap harp, via a teacher and the book ‘basic harp for beginners’by laurie Riley. The book is very good, but i think a tutor is improtant early on to learn proper posture/hand use etc. And dont be put off f you cant read music, you can learn as you go. I’m loving it.

watched it as a teenager, now re-enjoying on dvd, each epiosde a reward for studying hard! nearly finished season 5, my favorite episode so far ‘mite makes right’ the kiss in the snow-ahhhh. Haven’t found season 6 in NZ so far, will keep hunting, but secretly wish it didnt have to end. Wish they would make a Northern Exposure follow up movie, like the sex and the city one??
I found and watched season 6, sigh, so sad its ened now…until i rewatch them again in about 10 years when I’,m likely to have forgotten enough to enjoy them all over again!
...will be floor to ceiling book shelves, except for the gap for the windown overlooking the garden and the fireplace. It will have to have at least one spooky taxidermied animal (ideally an morepork) lurking in a corner, and the badly damaged art deco leather sofa and chairs that have lived in the shed for the last 3 years which my husband will have fixed up finally by then. I will never dust it and it will be perfect!
