Putting a thumb rest on her tenor recorder stopped that slipping

You've reminded me that No 2 daughter has occasional dry hands yet plays
wind and string instruments, I wonder how she manages ... her husband's skin
is even worse (chronic eczema on all limbs) and he plays too. I know that he
wears gloves in the workshop - they're cabinet makers.

Hmm. Must remember to ask.
