Subject: RE: Irish Mudcatters?
The village in question is called Hamiltownsbawn that's quite close to Markethill that is on the main road from Newry to Armagh. I live near Portadown, which is about six miles from Hamiltownsbawn.

Our Club is really quite young and probably quite amateurish compared to what's about but we enjoy it. We are learning and more importantly wanting to learn and, probably not terrible knowledgeable about the folk world in general.

"I'm not sure what you're proposing, but our Morris Dancers are "twined" with a group in England, and our Border Morris with a group in Wales. As the local saying goes "Get particular, and we'll talk". "

I'm not sure either what I'm proposing on the "twining issue" it was just a thought.

How does it work with the dancers ?
