Music stands in London / by Nick Barberton

I had a request about my music stands. I get requests fairly often about the music stand: It is my husbands birthday soon I would love to get him a music stand. How Much? Oh!

This time it was from The Royal Opera House. They were not fazed by the price, so I made up a batch and when the time came to deliver, we wrapped them in bubble wrap and took them on the train. Central London is Diesel People Carrier unfriendly at the moment and not likely to change in the near future. We caught the train at Ashurst where there is free parking. Discussed music stands with a fellow passenger who wondered what they were and walked up from Waterloo to Covent Garden. The Royal Opera house loved them. We bussed up to Kensington High street and went to the “Anno’s Journey” exhibition at Japan House. We had a few other things we wanted to see, but time caught up with us as we made our way back to Waterloo, Ashurst and our car parked some way off in a Forest car park in the dusk.
