<p><em>&#8216;Tis the season to be jolly,<br />
Lots of reason for acts of folly,<br />
Turkey and ham, Brandy and wine,<br />
Presents so wham, Gifts so fine,<br />
T-shirts and socks, Handcreams and clocks.</em></p>
<p><em>Family and friends gather round,<br />
United in blood by ties that bound,<br />
Celebrate whats Yours&#8230;Ours&#8230;Mine,<br />
Those past times, those past Father Times,<br />
We remember where our loyalties lie.</em></p>
<p><em>To you and yours. Cheers everyone!!</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last Saturday afternoon saw an hour or so of traditional Irish music, dancing and singing (<em>Ceol, Rinnce agus AmhrÃ¡naÃ­ocht</em>) at the 2007 <a href="http://www.feilenandeise.com/">Feile Na nDeise</a>.  The band were young but they were pretty good and keep a good rhythm going.  They were particularly strong when the guitarist was maintaining the tempo.  He gets extra points for maintaining his composure when one of his guitar strings broke during one of the songs.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d be grateful if someone could tell me if they are a &#8216;proper&#8217; group or whether they were &#8216;<em>just</em>&#8216; an ad hoc group for the day.  I think they were based out of Ring (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring,_County_Waterford">An Rinn</a>).</p>
<p>There are three photo&#8217;s below.  The <strong>first</strong> is a group shot of the band.  The guitarist mentioned above is on the right-hand side.  The <strong>second</strong> photo belongs to the best dancer of the show.  She looks amazing (very composed and professional) and her footwork was so fast, my eyes couldn&#8217;t keep up!  The <strong>third</strong> photo is a group shot of the dancers as they started their last set.  It&#8217;s already been <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/isadub/490351580/">pointed</a> out to me (on flickr) that the girl on the left looks like she&#8217;s being beamed up to the mothership!! </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll post more photo&#8217;s to my <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/isadub/sets/72157600197083109/">Feile Na nDeise</a> set on flickr as time permits.</p>
