I can only whistle
With my fingers in my mouth.

I found that difficult, and couldn't do it until I was about 20,
when I learnt it from a guide in Maxim.

I've been able to do ordinary and toothy whistling since I was tiny.

I can't describe it
You kind of say 'pyow' rather than just toodling through your lips.

No but that's what we call my uncle who taught me how to whistle.
He is unbelievable.

Hang on.
So I need to see your uncle to get my fiver?

When do you usually do your whistling?

All the while
But I'm banned from doing it in my hairdresser's

Brilliant.
How long did you whistle for in the hairdressers before you were asked/told to stop?

12 and a half years
I just counted.

I know what you mean
...with your lips not pursed, unlike 'trad' whistling?

That's how I do guitar riffs by whistling.
