Hi every M&E flute players!
Micheal Cronolly posted to Canada a nice 6 keys flute for me on the 6th of september.
So it’s been quite the double of what it should take and I start to worry.
Any of you has experienced this kind of long delay for a flute flying from Ireland to Canada?
Two words:

It’s probably in Canada by now but held up in Customs somewhere. You should not have to pay duty on it, but you’ll most likely have to pay QST and GST when it is delivered. Customs will hold it for inspection and processing before it gets delivered, so you might have to wait a while longer.
Yes, I had to wait about a month for a flute from the US (Casey Burns) and had to pay over $100 in duties.

Well thanks guys!
I thought that more than 20 working days was anormally long…
So, to forget the wait, I’ll keep on practicing and when it gets too late at night, I’ll take out my Rubik’s Cube…
Why not try a nice bodhrán?

I do DJM!
I play the instrument that nobody wants to play and nobody wants to hear…
But what a fun!
