Can't find anywhere that sells flabiols  :(  You can however buy adapted recorders with keys so you can play them single-handed, only problem is that they're the thick end of £500 so maybe not this time.

Although if you cut off your right arm they are considerably cheaper. I think that the reason why those recorders are so expensive for able bodied people is that the increased cost subsidises the people who really need them, which is fair enough.

here is a shop here that sells them for Eu 70, in a couple of colours, if that is important.
