Hi! Dick,

Tried your tune. Really like mine better, but it's nice to know a different possibility exists. You didn't say if you tried it to "The Irish Washerwoman." Did you? Not your cup o' tea?

BTW, is Mrs McGrath usually played as slowly as it is in the MIDI in the DT? Maybe that's the trouble. This verse is upbeat and lighhearted; M.M. -- not so much, nu?

Like "Larry O'Gaff" VERY WELL for "The Dormouse and The Doctor." Thanks, and I'd love to know the name of the second jig when it occurs to you.

How about a tag verse of your own for "The Old Sailor"?

Many thanks,

Shula
