After the service, I took this photo of the organ console . . . small & simple ~ but it is a delightful little two-manual-and-pedal organ, and a pleasure to play.
Nigel Wickens, who plays here, and at Stanhoe, told me he was worried about the organ at Stanhoe ~ which had been playing-up recently, with sticking notes and 'cyphers' ~ because he had to play it for Harvest Festival that same evening.
After visiting Herbert at Fring for coffee-and-chat, I detoured home via Stanhoe, and spent an hour sorting out the sticking notes . . . mainly caused by mouse-droppings getting lodged between the keys !
I went home for a quick bite-to-eat . . . then went back to join the Stanhoe congregation for their Harvest Festival . . . and drum-up yet more publicity for my recital !
