Title: Me and my piano...

John Rogers has played the piano since he was six. The ivories have never been far away from his fingertips. He has found it a great comfort in times of stress and also a tremendous source of fun.

His pianos have been many over the years, the sizes of which have been dictated by the size of house.

But now it's his baby-grand that takes centre stage in his drawingroom and he is thrilled that his grandson Tom will be ensuring a good home for it when John's keyboard days hit the last note.
