In my link it shows it being folded out https://pianomanpianos.co.uk/news/2017/5/19/a-ships-piano

 

The pj=hoto I posted shows the keyboard folded out for playing, the kyboard is folded upwards to close it.

How on earth did she manage to get the innards out of the calorifier?

We can only use our imaginations but she seems to have got her hand stuck!

ETA Anyone else thinking Flanders & Swan, 'An Ill Wind'?

I have never heard of THE MARY BROWN, so presumably previously known by a different name - a fairly basic looking conversion of a B.C.N. day boat:

They are having a laugh, surely?

Particularly in view of this.....

The Mary Brown doesn't show up on the canalplan boat listing either.

It isn't listed in the David Williams and Peter Silvester books either. It might be worth someone asking what the registration number is.

Yes it is, Book 2 page 36 - with the photograph taken 14 May 2017.

With the index number I might be able to find its previous identity if its conversion really does date back to the 1960's - Jim Shead / Canalplan only going as far back as 2005 :captain:

Apologies Pete I looked in the index which is obviously not complete!!
