Fingers itched and fluttered over the keys, but no message came from the brain directing them to transmit readable text.  It was a little like a young child at the Piano…  Which one will I press?

All those white and black strips….

88 keys.

52 white Notes and 36 black Notes (Unless you have a Bosendorfer piano – then you have up to 97 Notes).

But that is not correct…. there is another Key:

The one to lock the lid!

Time to light the fire and pick up the knitting needles!
