Hello all,
Just to report we (the reel branch from Clontarf) had a great weekend at the fleadh. All our bands and groups got through to the Leinsters.

It was a little disconcerting to see our groups lists in the fleadh programme as "Grupa Ceoil" U12, U15, U18. Our individual competitors were listed under their home addresses. It felt wrong not to be listed as Cluain Tarbh. The practise room assigned to our members was given the name of a branch member, not the club and all of this hurt.

However, the music was brilliant, and as I said the results speak for themselves. We can be cast out from the fold, but it doesn't change the quality and unity of our musicians and members who will continue to do what we do best, i.e. play music.

Thanks to Kinsealy branch for all the work put in to making a great fleadh weekend.

Eileen
