about

One of Peter Crosthwaite's many ideas for tourist attractions was a Cabinet Of Curiosities, which reached over 2000 exhibits, including a Tartar crossbow, the bones of the Corbridge Giant, a stone xylophone, and his own inventions like the non-smoking chimney top. His museum was known, possibly patronisingly, as a 'Nicknackatorium'.

Co-written and played together by Peter Michael Rowan (fiddle), Pete Moran (guitar) and Rich Evans (cello). Also featuring Tom Corda-Stanley (woodblock).
