Yep, I agree on the tongueing bit....bite me, 'Spaw...she gives it a good start in the tutor, but assumes follow up. There are also the "trilling" style which is not covered at all. THE FAIR ONE is a practitioner of this style and plays wonderfully. Apparently it is something she learned playing flute....I have other ideas for it, but that is fodder for another discussion.........LOL......Bad, Mick, very bad.....The point is, get a tutor that gives you a good understanding of basic techniques and then develope your own.

And Fionn, we will just have that jar when I get to Holyhead.
