Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Irene M Date: 26 Oct 11 - 02:39 PM Sounds like Ruin-air to me. Years ago, Aer Linctus had a service from East Midlands Airport to Dublin. I seem to recall one of them landing in a farmer's field at Wilson instead of at EMA. Gods know how they got it out. The QEll was last seen headed for Dubai, just as Dubai's economy keeled over. Now.....I recall QEll running aground in Nantucket Sound. There must be a song in that somewhere? Mary, did you deflate just then? |

Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: kendall Date: 25 Oct 11 - 02:56 PM Mary, I don't perform, I entertain, or share. Jacqui, don't say it. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: SINSULL Date: 25 Oct 11 - 02:16 PM A flock of cardinals as well as a herd of turkeys scampering around with the squirrels and blue jays. I should sell tickets. Was Aer Lingus the company that taped the cockpit window in place and had to turn around when it started to fall out? Or was that Ryanair? How about the QE II? |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Irene M Date: 25 Oct 11 - 01:12 PM I opened the blind on Saturday morning to see turkeys in the front yard next door to you. Then when we got back to Jacqui and Kendall's, there were more in the yard. This time I got some photos. I'll just have to re-locate won't I? Better go out for some lottery tickets then.... Dilemma. Do I buy lottery tickets or save the money towards my next bail-out of Aer Lingus? Love to all with four feet as well as two. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: SINSULL Date: 23 Oct 11 - 04:39 PM Just looked out the back window to see a flock of wild turkeys wandering around my backyard. Was it you who told me they were there two weeks ago? Wish you could have been here last night, Irene. Great music. Good company. Even Kendall performed. SINS |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Irene M Date: 23 Oct 11 - 01:38 PM Yes it was, thank you. Right up to spotting the twins in the departure lounge! At least I shared my pain with a cabin full of would-be nappers! |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: jacqui.c Date: 23 Oct 11 - 12:16 PM Good - we want you back. We enjoyed your company a lot. I hope that the rest of your stay was good. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Irene M Date: 23 Oct 11 - 08:06 AM Thanks folks. I had fun, not just on Saturday night, but the whole visit. And I still haven't a clue where I was staying (geography-wise). Yes, I know I was in South Portland, but other than that...... Yes, I will come back. Irene |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Charley Noble Date: 10 Oct 11 - 08:21 PM It was sad (so sad) when the desert went down... Charley Noble |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: ranger1 Date: 10 Oct 11 - 03:06 PM What Kendall said. Life is uncertain, eat desset first. Either that or give me the gummi bears. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: kendall Date: 10 Oct 11 - 09:17 AM Sins, I wonder how many of those passengers on the Titanic passed up dessert because they were trying to cut down? |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: SINSULL Date: 09 Oct 11 - 10:22 PM At any other time the gummy bears, Churchill fruit gums and Jacqui's wine gums would be pure joy. HOWEVER I joined Weight Watchers at work and now my dilemma is to pace myself or just eat myself sick on my favorite candy and live with it. heh heh Three guesses. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: jacqui.c Date: 09 Oct 11 - 07:07 PM It was so good to have a song circle again. Everyone was in good form - new songs and old were sung and we now have a new and very welcome friend in Irene who, as Mary said, has a lovely voice. We have told her to come back any time. She's off on her travels again today, having spent a rather hectic couple of days in South Portland. We went to the Press Room Friday night, left early as she was still recovering from her flight the day before. Hopefully she will come back again at some time. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: bradfordian Date: 09 Oct 11 - 06:01 PM My cousin in Chicago took me to a gummy bear factory, and I sort of got carried away.......... I hope they like gummy bears in Keene too. I gotta exchange the weight for Mudcat CDs to go to the UK. bradfordian |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Charley Noble Date: 09 Oct 11 - 05:46 PM And there were all of those stories, all of them true, as well as songs! Charley Noble |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: SINSULL Date: 09 Oct 11 - 05:03 PM You are welcome, guys. Last evening was exactly what I needed.Good to see Barrie again. Irene was an easy house guest with a lovely voice. Good to see Kathy and Michael. Deborah was a welcome surprise. Good music. lots of snacks, quiet breakfast this AM (thank you, Mrs. Morse. And who left the lovely bag of gummy bears? We will do it again soon, SINS |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: ranger1 Date: 09 Oct 11 - 04:16 PM Last evening was just what I needed. Thanks Mary! |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: bradfordian Date: 09 Oct 11 - 03:49 PM Yes indeed, thank you for singaround, Sinsull. Temperature in the high 80's on Sunday. Gee, lobster is so much more diner friendly than crab! Thanks for the boat ride and lobster, Charley and Judy. bradfordian |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Charley Noble Date: 09 Oct 11 - 03:26 PM Sinsull- Thanks for hosting this gathering. We all had a lot of fun. We took Barrie M. out in the boat today and it was beautiful on the water. Saw a handsome Eagle perched above the bank of the Sasanoa River. And then we cruised over to Five Islands and feasted on lobsters. Life couldn't be better. Cheerily, Charley Noble |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Jeri Date: 09 Oct 11 - 03:06 PM I started getting symptoms before the Portsmouth Sea Music fest. I took Claritin, and 'it' went away. I ran out of Claritin and it came back. I bought some more and I've been taking it for 3 days now, and things seem to be improving... just not fast enough. Kendall, at least you made it out. It looks like we lost everybody else. Of course, they could all be having fun. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: kendall Date: 09 Oct 11 - 02:57 PM I feel like death taking a crap, but I didn't get it at the Getaway, had it to start with. Not a cold, it's a sinus thing. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Jeri Date: 09 Oct 11 - 01:10 PM Did anyone survive? I'm not convinced this ISN'T a cold. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Jeri Date: 08 Oct 11 - 05:32 PM Sorry, Mary. The cold I usually get after the Getaway which is really allergies, is in full bloom. Even if I didn't go to the Getaway. Enjoy! |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: bradfordian Date: 08 Oct 11 - 08:18 AM I'm looking forward to meeting you again tonight after 5 years. bradfordian |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: SINSULL Date: 07 Oct 11 - 07:49 AM Irene arrived last night a little the worse for wear. A pair of twin toddlers entertained her through the entire flight. She seemed well rested this morning. Kitties enjoyed the company. See you all tomorrow around 7PM. Thanks Charlie. There will be some cheeses, chips, vegetables with dip. I think we'll be fine. M Irene - thermostat is on the wall outside the bathroom. Adjust at will. It was cold this morning. M. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Charley Noble Date: 05 Oct 11 - 01:10 PM So, from our household, are myself, Judy and Bradfordian. We'll bring wine and beer. Anything else in short supply? |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: SINSULL Date: 05 Oct 11 - 09:16 AM Looks like about ten. Jeri? You in? |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: SINSULL Date: 05 Oct 11 - 09:15 AM Refresh |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: SINSULL Date: 03 Oct 11 - 11:16 AM Refresh I imagine Deborah and Tom will attend. Not sure though. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Irene M Date: 30 Sep 11 - 03:36 PM I leave for Dublin tomorrow. See you next week folks. Over and out. Irene |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: SINSULL Date: 30 Sep 11 - 02:02 PM refresh |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: ranger1 Date: 29 Sep 11 - 06:03 PM I think I'm in. Depends on staffing at work. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Irene M Date: 29 Sep 11 - 03:31 PM A week from now, I will be bouncing down the coast of Maine and into Boston. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: SINSULL Date: 29 Sep 11 - 09:39 AM The blind leading the blind... |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: GUEST,kendall Date: 28 Sep 11 - 04:12 PM Don't worry, Irene, I'll be there to keep order. ;-) |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Irene M Date: 28 Sep 11 - 04:00 PM Are the eggs for breakfast, or is there more to this "own risk" than meets the eye? |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: SINSULL Date: 28 Sep 11 - 12:49 PM Holly - bring eggs if you have them. Be good to see you as well. M |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: SINSULL Date: 28 Sep 11 - 08:31 AM Hard to believe that Omar Khayyam used LO for Laugh Out. A man before his time. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: GUEST,kendall Date: 28 Sep 11 - 07:45 AM By all means. Come, fill the cup, and in the fire of spring The winter garment of repentance fling: The bird of time has but a little way to fly- An LO! the bird is on the wing. (Omar Khayyam) |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Cuilionn Date: 27 Sep 11 - 10:03 PM Hmmm! We might be able to make this one. I get off work at 6 PM in Freeport and I think we're both free after that. I could use some song-singery--my pipes are rusty, and ceilidh season is ramping up! --Cuilionn |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Irene M Date: 27 Sep 11 - 03:53 PM Strewth. Should be entertaining, then. |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: SINSULL Date: 26 Sep 11 - 07:03 PM No we're not. Enter at your own risk. Mary |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Irene M Date: 26 Sep 11 - 03:32 PM Can I come too? Tee hee Can't wait. You are very kind. Irene |
Subject: RE: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: Charley Noble Date: 26 Sep 11 - 12:57 PM Sounds like fun. We're in for the singing. Check your PMs for details. Charley Noble |
Subject: South Portland, ME Song Circle 10/8 From: SINSULL Date: 26 Sep 11 - 11:50 AM IreneM is visiting and Jacqui and I thought it might be nice to revive the song circle evening. Arrive after 7PM Light refreshments, wine, beer and whatever comes in the door. Music until... Breakfast for anyone staying over until Sunday. Who's in? |
