Nice to hear that Neactain and the Quay are still there. Last time I was in the Quays, around 84, there is a big modle of a Galway Hooker on the wall (A sailing vessle) So... I said, "I'll sing a song I know about a Hooker in a pub..." and I sang the great song from Jimmy Spiris... I saw you walking the streets of the harbour Lady so fine dressed in Calico Wives of the farmers, gather their husbands Mercants drop their goods as you walk by so slow...
One of the great songs about the working girls... Cheers Larry
