I think you had it right yesterday with AN accordian pleated skirt, whereas A accordian he would get a chill doesn't sound right.
Hope that makes sense.

yes but if you read it as "if he didnt get "a caridgan" it makes more sense. It is really annoying me now I was waking up in the night thinking what word could go where!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

rogerr

It was just that yesterday you put A then the blank for the word so the word would have to start with a consonant not a vowel.

ontarioice

Yes, yesterday you had "if he didn't get a etc."
Suggestion: If he didn't get a muffler he would get a chill.
Muffler is not an actual instrument but is used on a saxaphone.

ontarioice

Sorry. Read that Saxophone.

There is a Japanese instrument called a Koto

ageing fast

There is also an instrument from the Philipines called a Kagul: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kagul

but the other instruments are well-known.

I agree with accordion pleated. If he eventually drank a harp, maybe he felt that he needed a Bass soon to warm him up. Not entirely convinced but..............
