There was a pleasing increase of bums on seats this week – just as well since we had the additional expense of sending the regular scribe away on another holiday, and remunerating his Deputy Scribe. In all there were 20 attendees, with 13 (12a if you are superstitious) performers. The word performers rather than singers is specifically chosen, because we had a welcome visit by Kath and her Koncertina, who gave us such tunes as
Planxty Irwin (
Turlough O'Carolan) and
Salmon Tails Up The Watter (
James Allan - yes, you non-Geordies, the second "t" IS compulsory).
