You Hum It And I'll Bugger It Up
Delivery men held their heads in horror after a £45,000 grand piano crashed off a lorry.
Music lovers spent two years raising cash for the half-ton Bösendorfer, reports The Sun.
Organiser Penny Adie, 54, was ready with her camera as specialist removers arrived at an arts centre in Barkham, Devon. But she watched in horror as the coveted instrument fell 14ft off the tail-lift.
The piano hit a set of granite steps and ended up wrecked in a ditch.
Penny said: "We are numb." Her husband John, 61, added: "We'll have to start fund-raising again."
The removal firm refused to comment.
Start fund raising again? Two words spring to mind 'Insurance' and 'Claim'.
What do you think?
It;s no worse than after Keith Emerson had a go on it.

I think husband John, 61, is a bit slow.
It's a bummer that they'll have to wait for a new one, but surely even if they don't have insurance, the removals company will. that's why you hire one, instead of getting the PG-Tips chimps to do it.
