Our collaborator Lee Oskar provides useful instructions and insights with resources for how to use and take care of the harmonica which is available here.
14. When will my harmonica arrive?
Unfortunately, due to a recent Royal Mail cyber incident, the delivery of international items has taken slightly longer than usual. Some items may not be scanned when leaving Northern Ireland and the next scan you see may be once it arrives in the destination country. This is due to the fact Royal Mail are using alternative solutions to aid the export of international items, ones that haven’t been impacted by the recent issue. You can follow along for more updates here: https://www.royalmail.com/international-incident-bulletin
Shipments are also at risk of delays due to Brexit.
