Thanks, Fib. Did Georgie stick to Irish tunes, or was he allowed to treat everyone to some old time? I'll see if they're planning to go next time. (Or maybe you already know?) Once again I know I'll be in Co Down (Bangor and Moira) for several days beforehand - but again, it might prove difficult staying on over the weekend.

Incidentally Dianna had an interesting book published about Irish traditional and some of its exponents: "Exploring Irish Music and Dance" (O'Brien Press, Dublin, 1998).
