My wife had a piano bought for her when she was in her teens, apparently a decent quality one. Just an upright, nothing fancy. It's sat in her parents house ever since, and hasn't been played for twenty years or so. Anyway, she's decided she wants it here, so it's being delivered tomorrow. She wants to start playing again, and to encourage the kids to play too.
I'm having a firm of piano movers shift it - I would never try to move a piano. Or should I say, to try to move another piano. Best part of thirty years ago a mate and I helped our music teacher shift a cheapy schools issue 3/4 piano up half a dozen stairs. Although the physical pain has long gone, the mental scars remain!
I can't play the piano, but I'm oddly quite excited about it!
Bound to be miles out of tune, what with being moved and not being tuned for years.
