What is a ceili?
Fleadh?
Twmpath?
How long have you got?

AND

dare we mention the concept of EC? English Ceilidh since you ask. Yes there are differences - the last Scottish Ceilidh I went to was in Cheltenham Town Hall and they brought a band down from Aberdeen and a few Aberdonians with them.

While all the English Ceilidhnauts were spinning and twisting while the action worked it's way up to them the "Scoooortish Country Dancers" were tutting and rollong their eys, muttering "Ney Ney, ye stand yerselfs still, ye ken?" Oh no we don't Mac!

And where were the hornpipes? Or Northern Rants? And why oh why oh why did they call a Waltz and play a Schottische? Yea yea understandable, but it took half the dance for us to stop being so obliging and just do a Schottische.

The band played like Jimmy Shand would have played.
