I also wish you well, Eileen. If I were in Dublin, I would certainly attend the concert as well. As I will not be, I hope that it goes well. It's a fantastic line-up, as you say, and I've heard your U18 group many times.

If I were to venture a prediction, I would expect that the Clasaċ theatre board will be constituted with representation from the branch, as originally agreed. I see no reason why that would not occur. I suspect, though, that the dissolution will not be reversible, for reasons that have been discussed above. I am hoping that a reconciliation between factions can be reached within the new branch, and that the branch will continue its excellent teaching, touring and outreach programmes.
