Chiff & Fipple's International Relations Wing recently met via teleconference and members have agreed to send you a whistle (although a member who resides in Miami abstained.) Please email dwwisely @ hiwaay. net and provide your address.

P.S. Hm. Will we be breaking some kind of law?

I am yoe, from Cuba. I am 25 years old, i am in love with the flutes in general but i prefer the sound of the irish flute (and traditional Irish music too). I have a whistle and i love it to. I would like to have an Irish traditinal flute someday, but here in my country it is impossible to get one...

I received some whistle from England and was not any problem... You can use DHL..

Post by yoemichel »

I say that actually because of it...

I really want a whistle to sound better. i would like to have a REAL whistle someday.. I ll try to say that... All the other things are true. i dont have mecanism to get anyone of them...
Some people send me a Feadog some day but i lost it. Another person sent me one but i dont like its sound. It is a bad whistle. I decided not to say that story and make it short....

sorry, could you forgive me??

Perhaps they fell off the boat. And drowned.Or maybe it had something to do with the Bermuda triangle.
Anyone know if there's a little folk instrument shop somewhere in Havana selling 2nd hand whistles?
