Wilson?  Foot?  Kinnock? Benn?  Livingstone?  Prescott?  I'd love to see them all in kilts. ;D ;D

Depends on the arms of course.
I assume that your arms are OK, ???
I don't know about thread drift but this is becoming very sinister.  Who on earth bears arms whilst playing a melodeon, chair or no chair  ???

I'm a Yorkie!
My other melodeon's a fiddle, but one of my Hohners has six strings! I also play a very red Hawkins Bazaar in C and a generic Klingenthaler spoon bass in F.!! My other pets (played) are gobirons - Hohner Marine Band in C, Hohner Tremolo in D and a Chinese Thingy Tremolo in G.

Aye, 'tis that too (or at least S'ton is on The North Island).
And as for West Sussex ( ;)) - that's still Far East to many.
