I saw this myself too, not with my things but seeing other people’s stuff placed neatly in a visible but safe place :slight_smile:

The only other time I heard of that was when I was in the Boy Scouts. I couldn’t make it whistle!

Last weekend I was walking around during a local festival, and couldn’t resist picking up an acorn cap. It’d been decades since I last tried whistling with one, but after a few minutes I was getting the attention of passersby (especially kids) and even managed a few simple tunes by adjusting my fingers. I showed a few of the younglings how to do it for themselves, too. All those years of flute practice and band camp finally paid off! :wink:

No, young Padawan…practice you must…and remember to laugh at the odd sounds that come out until you get a clear tone :grin:

That reminds me; I’m gonna have to pick up James Galway’s latest, “Concerto for Flute and Acorn”.
