Let’s hope Isabel gets the cornet back unharmed.

When this happens, it’s usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it’s been deleted.Aww I’m sure the thief isn’t a cornet player so I’ve got a feeling it will be sold at a cash generator or somewhere like that. Maybe it would be worth giving them a call? Good luck on getting it back. Xxx
Really hope you get your cornet and band attire back 🙏🤞
If like to share this, but I can't.
