Lynne - it would be more useful to learn a few good Bodhran jokes - the kind that suck the jokers in and then turn around the butt of the joke.

eg the difference between a Bodhran and a drum seat (only has to support one bum) - gynaecologist - only has to deal with one......... you get the idea. Oh they go on.

I usually point-out my drums are stained with the blood of drum joke tellers. That works well!
