Not a Concertina

Its an unusual name that not many would know about
It was invented at the end of the 19th Century and similar to a Glockenspiel

Edit Similar sound that should have been

I like to do everything myself too.Different countries have different ideas about domestic help, in China it provides a lot of work for country people who come to the big cities looking for employment as they often are not well educated and those positions usually come with room and board which is a big help in a strange place.

Sounds Good Daff

I agree about the servants though It all sounds good having a servant but I like to do things the way I do them. I hate the word servant it is so old fashioned and reminds me of Snotty upperclass back in the earlier centuries.
I did have cleaning lady once when I was working full time for a little while. She was a girl that worked for me and needed the money so she came in once a week. I didn't class her as a servant though.
It was mainly vacuuming, Bathroom and toilets etc. It was nice but hubby used to tell me off as I still went around after her lol.
They never do it the way you want it done.
