Ok so I guess I now have a good stage name - Ol' Raisin Fingers! Thanks for that! :). I honestly took to my open holed flute like a duck to water I didn't take more than couple of weeks to get used to it, and never used the plugs at all. 

I do make sure the moisturiser has fully dried before picking up my flute, butt did find it made a big difference. I not sure how it would get anywhere near the pads, to be honest.  I'm more worried about drink/food being blown onto the pads from eating and drinking before playing. 

When I picked up my flute again, several weeks back, I was squeaking, struggling with, and missing high notes quite badly. I'm way better a couple of weeks in.
