I will be offline for some days.
I may have a look into the forum with my mobile but will not be able to post.

I don’t know when I will be back, hopefully soon, maybe in 2 days already but cant say it yet because tomorrow I have an operation (well its 2 in 1 to be exactly) and I may not be able to speak or whistle for some days, because this time I will be operated at my airways in nose and throat.
And I cant say if and/or when I will feel well enough to post here again, …but I am glad that I was able to get this place running, so that you can be active, learn and have fun here in the meantime and I will post again when I am back

See you soon I hope
Andreas

Andreas, good luck and take care.

Thanks for your whishes.
I am back home for several days already but had so much pain that i wasnt able to go online at all.
It will take some more days untill ill be able to concentrate enough for to read and also write here again ... but ill be back soon.

Hope the forum works well, so far?

Heý, i have got some whistle news as well .... even under pain, i was able to manage to whistle at least one minute every day ... not enough for real practise and probably completely out of tune, surely out of rythm but i "keep on tootin" .... good that i had some fun with my whistle the day before that operation by the crazy recording of "the star of county down" ... hope soon i can whistle again, serious and funny ways, too.

See you soon

New Update

hey hey hey
I didnt forget you and also didnt lost my interest in playing my penny whistles , oh no ...
But im still not fit again.
I have Headache all day, so i cant even listen to whistles, i have my mouth, teeth, troat, nose, ears, the whole head burning like as its filled with hot liqiued metal, so playing whistles is just in some few good momemts possible for a short while every day....

The good part of all this is that i cant eat and lost 13 Kilogramm (26 pounds) already and thats good for me but it will take some more days untill i can play whistles again and get active here again
anyway .... i hope you have fun here and keep "tootin" your tin whistles

A last update on this thread

as you may have noticed by my increasing activity in writing posts and working on this website during the last week, .... yes finaly i am feeling better and better.

And even if i tried to whistle every day a little bit, yesterday was the first day when i had whistles in my hands for longer times and many times the day.

Today finaly i did practise seriously for the first time since my operation 3 weeks ago.

Inoticed that i have forgotten some parts of tunes i did know,
that my technique needs more practise again
and that because of the operation at my airways i still need more time untill i can whistle as used to
BUT i am looking forward to whistle more and serioulsy again.

Also, now when feeling better, i have to go back to work and probably will not find that much time anymore as i found for example during the last days for this website but its nice to feel better and surely i will be able to use time more efficient again, so i will be online and also whistling a lot.

Anyway, i am still not healthy but feeling much better and back whistling finaly, and thats good.

Oh by the way, anybody of you need to loose weight?
Get an operation at your nose mouth and throat and you will loose weight like nothing.
I lost 11 kilogramm the first week after the operation, when i wasnt able to eat at all (just very very little bit under a lot of pain)
and now after 3 weeks its 20,2 kilogramm because i just continued eating nearly same little bit as i was able during the first 2 weeks.
That was the best start into a diet i ever had, 20 kilo (40 pounds) in just 3 weeks, never would have belived that is possible.
This operation did help me in moire than just one way, i really feel much better.

So this was my last update on this thread because im am truely back now.
Thanks for caring , if you did 😉
