Hi  -

'Just  wanted  to  introduce  myself.

My  dad's  folks  are  from  Mitchelstown  and  are  very  musical  and  my  mother's  kin  are  from  Tralee  and  also  quite  musical.  Smiley

It  is  from  them  that  I  got  my  love  of  music  and  they  encouraged  my  musical  ability  and  so  now  I  play  clarinet,  tin  whistle  and  bagpipes!

My  paternal  grandfather  was  a  member  of  the  Jimmy  Whiley  Showband  and  I  would  desperately  love  a  photo  -  any  helpers??  Undecided

BTW. Re. 'Hello Boys"....... We've quite a few of the fairer sex here as well.

regards

Barry

Hallo Da Blonde!

there is an old joke, what do you call a gentleman?  someone who plays the bagpipes...but doesn't!  How cruel.  I'm sure you're a lady who knows when to take them pipes out and when to leave them at home!

welocme to the boards!

Was there not an amusing thread some time ago on the dreaded bagpipes ?
Someone once said that there is no discernable difference between someone who can play the bagpipes and someone who CAN'T !!.....  "Makes sense to me '

Note to"The Blonde".   Just pulling your leg !
