Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

Something interesting that happened to you
Something humourous that happened to you
Something frustrating that happened to you
A quick question
A request for recommendations
Pictures of your pet
A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

That looks like it's coming from Amazon UK according to the "Sold by" and "Ships from" section, so may take longer.

The two top review from Aus aren't promising lol:

Doesn't seem to work very well at all

The trumpet was my daughters only Christmas wish. It arrived damaged due to poor packaging. Placed into a satchel instead of being boxed. If we had time to find a replacement it would have been returned.

Ah man, I didn't read those bits.

I had a look at a music shop and I'm not sure I want to encourage this hobby 😆

Most brass instruments aren't cheap! It's why my parents were smart enough to rent the saxophone when I was in high school because they knew I wouldn't stick with it 😅I think trumpets are also really loud when learning to play, RIP your neighbours ears 😂
