And ...
* How about a REVOLUTION! of Gurdies
* Would a "Hive" of gurdies be a Hive of Drones?
* Beginning gurdists could be referred to as "Cranker Sores"
Cheers,

Ooh, great thread!
Collective nouns for multiple hurdy-gurdies I have considered over the past 21
years:
The aforementioned "hurd"
The aforementioned "crank"
A brace of hurdy-gurdies--makes sense if you're a builder, and I like the sound
of it
A blast of hurdy-gurdies--makes sense if you've ever heard MY gurdy
A spin of hurdy-gurdies (& would a group of players be spinsters?)
A gaggle of hurdy-gurdies (well, sometimes they squawk)
A pack of hurdy-gurdies (dog reference)
A howl of hurdy-gurdies

Question: Is there an appropriate collective noun for a group of HG players?
Thanks,
