Stolen Harp

From nz-folk, Celia Briar:

On January 14th my Kim Webby Minstrel harp was taken from my van, in the Westpac Stadium car park in Wellington. It's astounding that someone would nick something so big and
conspicuous, but they did. So I never made it to the session... In case you see a harp for sale that could be my one, here are the details:
It's a Kim Webby Minstrel harp, number 57, with 34 strings, some of them gut, some Nylgut. It'll be very out of tune, as some of the strings are new and I still have the tuning key!
The harp is made of New Zealand red beech, slightly battered from 19 years of use my me but otherwise in good order. It was in a new black carrying case with a set of strings in the pocket. I would be very glad to see it again, especially if it's not been trashed.
My contact details are cbriar-at-gmail.com
Thanks
Celia

Did you hear recently that in the news the police executed search warrants in Taita and have turned up a harp..... may be worth a visit to the Lower Hutt Police station. ask to speak to Detecvtice Ross Levy who I think was involved and he should be able to point you in the right direction.

Good Luck and I hope its yours!!
