Thanks Alex - pleased you liked it. The link you posted is to the audio supplements to the newsletter. I believe that the actual newsletters are generally only available to club members, but the audio gives you a flavour of what is in each edition of Nonsuch News.

Hello Karen - good to hear from you again. Yes, Sandie did set a high bar so I will have my work cut out. I will definitely get back to you with an idea or two. Thanks.

I won't be at Halsway unfortunately - it is always booked a year ahead, so difficult to get in. I am still organising the Nonsuch Spring Fling event in Newcastle every year - this will be our 5th year. Be good to get you to come up North one time!

Hey there Steve! Congratulations on your new gig!  Sandie set a high bar, but they’ve selected a talented guy to follow in her footsteps.  Happy to help if you want to pitch an idea. Hope to see you at Halsway.

Hello - for some reason I seem to have volunteered to be the new editor of the quarterly UK dulcimer club magazine "Nonsuch News". I am therefore looking for stories to feature in 2026. We cover both hammered and mountain dulcimers (am I even allowed to mention hammered dulcimers here?). So if you have a story to share - history of dulcimers; your personal journey with dulcimers and the dulcimer community; building or collecting dulcimers; unusual tunings used; favourite tunes and songs - in fact anything dulcimer or music related - I would love to hear from you. Sorry, there's no money involved - Nonsuch Dulcimer Club is a charity - but it would be great to hear about dulcimers from a U.S.A. (or elsewhere) perspective. You can contact me at editor@dulcimer.org.uk 

Thank you

Steve
