    what do you mean "gave up" the tin whistle Chico Jetset?

    You just pick it up and play. Nobody in a seisun is going to call you a **** for not being up to speed.

    I just stopped playing. If I could go back in time though I would keep up the fiddle. Ah Well.

    10 years ago in London was the last time I drank it. To be fair all the beer you get in London is ****in pish so it was probably the best of a bad lot.

    Fiddle yeah, I can understand that being tough to pick up and get back to speed but any time any place anywhere you can pick the tin whistle up and get a tune out of it.

    Hmm, while I myself will disapprovingly ignore unwanted Seisun instruments some less mannerly people may well vocalise their disapproval. This mostly applies to instruments called "Seisun bombs" (bodhrans, piano accordians, out of tune fiddles and, god forbid, the bagpipes)

    I am sure I'd tell those folk exactly where to shove it.

    I may not ever get a chance to tell this joke again.
    why do bodhran players mill around outside?

    I know many people from Ireland enjoy dancing to the tune of the IRA. Are they a good group? I can't say i've heard any of their tunes.

    And Jack, it comes as no surprise that in the past you were a reknowned fiddler...<ok>

    No your obviously wumming as you are clearly looking a reaction from a subject you have shown you clearly know nothing about.

    It is the only trad joke I have. The uncle won a bodhran all ireland medal. He has a place right on Banna Strand and as such was announced as being a Kerryman. He told them to stick their medal up their hole..... or so his story goes but he is full of ****.

    He is good though in fairness.
