Hi

Haven't actually seen the whoale funeral yet, (videoed it while I was out), and if my Hubby hasn't taped Friends over it I'll see if I know what the hymn is.

There is a hymn to the tune of "the Londonderry air", the first line of which goes "Oh Brother man, fold to thy heart thy brother,

Where pity dwells, the peace of God is there:....."

Does this sound like the one? I'm off to try and find the video.

Doesn't "Thaxted", (or Jupiter by Holst), sung as "I vow to thee my country", sound great belted out in a cathedral.( Needed some timps and cymbals though).

Here's another good Ulster word for you......"Guldered" It means to yell eg. "I guldered at the kids".

Slainte
