The viola is a 3/4 size Joseph Bernard (French made) viola. It was valued by Guivier of London in 2008 at ?1000. The viola comes with a case, two bows and a neck rest, all of which are in excellent condition.

Looking for offers in the region of ?400-500 Ono and the viola must be collected from Copleston Road by Wednesday 13th as we're moving. Serious bidders are very welcome to come to test viola this weekend.

The viola itself has a rich, deep sound and a warm colour.

I used the viola for about 5 years in the late 1990s, early 2000s. I no longer play, but used it in a number of chamber quartets and orchestras as a teenager. Because of the size of the viola, I believe it would suit either a teenager, or a fairly small adult.

  Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!

  Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.
- Does anyone remember an incident from the late 90s/early 00s in which a young man fell to death from Dawsons Heights?

  Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
