Your tune is not very different from the tune I transcribed (allowing for the different note lengths - I did consider 6/8 when I listened to the recording, but 3/4 seemed better!). I was just on my way to bed when I did the transcription last night and I didn't check it very carefully, but it should be close to what was on the recording.

I'd rewrite your transcription more like this:

X:1
T:
M:6/8
Q:1/4=75
K:EAeo
B,6|EBB BBB|AGF EEF|GFG AGA|B3-B2
B,|EBB BAG|FGF E2
E/F/|G>GG FED|E2D B,3|
G>GG FAF|E3-E3/4||

(for clarity only - I haven't changed any note lengths) The note lengths in the 1st and last bars don't look correct, but it will go through Concertina Net's converter OK.
