Thanks to all who believed!!! ![]()
Plenty of us have extra whistles hanging around-- the hangup might be postage. From the US, the cheapest rate I could find was about $5 USD. If you can come up with that, Iām sure plenty of people would be willing to send a whistle.
Is this you?
Must be a case of WHOA

youāve got a good nose, dude..
I seem to remember two other threads along the same lines but from Cuba, but maybe Iām just a cynic.
I am afraid I wonāt be of much help right now since I cannot give you a whistle.
BUTā¦
Since you are a kidā¦I DO take you seriously and I suppose you do get pocket money and you can save up for a whistle.
Then, the whistle will mean even more to you, since you did make efforts to make your own dream come true.
A starter whistle can be bought for only a few dollars, so it wonāt take too long a time to save up for it.
Wish you good luck on the way into music, itās worth the efforts!

I donāt need a link to remember several previous posts that probably came from this. . . ah. . .individual.
I wish the kids I have experiance with could write this well, especially in everyday American english from an overseas location.
Iām just a 65 year old kid that likes free stuff too. How about a T-1 connection and some new hardware. My momma canāt afford to give it to me.

Really? coz I sent a cd once to the Philippines and it cost me $18. I was so duped. It must be the āgyp meā sign on my back.
Anyway, yhan, I might be able to send you an Oak whistle.
I remember how frustrating it was to get a tinwhistle back in the Philippines. Especially in my province, ugh! I asked my uncle to buy one for me and he returned from the city with two plastic recorders (was that an insult Uncle Ari?) I had to learn jigs on those things! Then my other uncle said he knows where to buy it, when we got there it was a freaking Kingflute store. But enough about me.
Letās exchange email. Masaya.
Check your p.m. and send me your address.
I am entering my second childhood and cannot afford the Porsche Iāve wanted all my life. Now, I know you good folks here probably canāt afford to send me a Porsche. But, there are many of you and if each just put up only $10 I could achieve my lifelong dream of owning one of these fine cars⦠:roll:
Donāt forget to visit the The Hunger Site by pressing the button on Chiff and Fipple web pages.
And donāt forget to click the sponsor link banners occasionally to help keep C&F funded.
It couldnāt happen to a better person⦠wait! maybe it could! ![]()
Nahā¦some ākidā from the Philippines asked me for a whistle a couple years ago after visiting my web page, and i remember seeing this exact same plea used here more than onceā¦
I wish I could find the thread where someone else smoked him out and he admitted that he did indeed have a whistle but it got broken or something..some folks said then theyād send him some too.
I imagine itās someone whoās discovered that the C&Fers are a bit of a āsoft touchā (which I find admirable actually..I sometimes regret my own cynicism) I dunno what this person is doing with all the free whistles we gets, but I sure wish heād send some of them to me ![]()
Gosh I have always wanted an OāRioordan whistle. But alas It will never be unless some generous soul sends me one.
Well it was worth a try.
