Had a lovely surprise on Friday night when we came across a street piano at the Bandstand on St James Street, Burnley. Haven't played a piano for years and it was lovely to have a go again. It took me a while to remember how to play Fur Elise - a guy came up to me and asked me to play it again because he felt emotional. How sweet.
I think these should be left up all year - it's a great way of connecting people.
We all had a hug at the end. Must leave the camera running longer next time!

Artists from Handmade in Burnley with the piano they painted so beautifully, and ITV Grenada presenter Paul Crone lying on top of it!
