About me: Overton Whistles are handcrafted instruments by either Bernard Overton in England or Colin Goldie in Germany.
These instruments are solely made from aluminium and have set the industry standard for Low Whistles. Before Bernard Overton offered his first aluminium Low D, no such whistle existed that was used for traditional Irish Music and the term Low Whistle or Low D is coined after the Overton Tenor D. 40 years on, many other whistle makers have since started making this kind of instrument, yet the Overton is still regarded as one of the best.
You can find more about the instruments at www.overton.co.uk

Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN
Once drove an old sedan, up north, From a place in Sydney to Cairns; Then to Kuranda I went forth, By train, to look without set plans.
I browsed through the trendy market, With fresh fruits of tropical kind; Walked to the creek through lush thicket - Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.
I dined in a scenic cafe; Then, outside, as I wrote for yen, Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey, You go walkabout with your pen.”
Request or question, I don’t know - Assured voices, elderly men. That’s now several years ago, And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.
Un placer encontraros aqui y disfrutar de vuestro magnifico trabajo. Un fuerte abrazo desde Extremadura, España, de vuestros amigos de Aulaga Folk. Juan Carlos
