Who’s heard that song? Who’s heard it lately? Why am I being underlined??
(oops okay, I’m not being underlined…my mistake)
We’re having great gangs of fun over here. The An Tostal parade is coming up fast- May 31st- thats a Sunday- and it will be after the Leitrim/Roscommon football where our side willl give Ros something to think about!!! Parade kick off is at 6pm. I’m working with two classes , three grades and two Mrs McLaughlin’s. It’s easy once you think about it. The two classes are across the hall from each other at the National School and the three grades are the 3rd class-they’re 9yr olds and the 5th and 6th class,on the other side of the hall, ages…11, 12,,, might even have a 13yr old.. and both teachers are called Mrs. McLaughlin. Fun or what! Mind you I’ll take this moment to say hello Mr Kane’s class who worked so hard on the St Patrick’s Day Parade way back in March….Hi… you guys rock….
Please take a good look at the latest adventure cooking for the summer time- The Written Word Weekend- July31-Aug3rd- bank holiday weekend. Its the weekend after the Joe Mooney Summer School and we’re hoping that some of the town’s visitors would stick around and further grace us with their written words after spending the week fluting, piping,lashing out on the old banjo or fiddling. We’re up dating the blog on the event daily and we even have an extremly cool YTube showing picture of Drumshanbo in 1904 AND one of my songs is used for the sound track… no I didn’t twist Stephen Rennick’s arm to do that- he choice the song all by himself! Actully you wouldn’t do yourself any harm by keeping an eye on Stephen’s personal site which is called Homemade Leitrim. He’s collected some wonderful links around the county and he also does thoughful poetry himself.
Right so … its 7:45am… I must get my legs in gear… I have the 3rd class and Mrs. McLaughlin coming to the Boys’ Club to do parade work at 9:30 and I have to give the place a sweep.
Very quickly… other news… The Pig Executives meet this saturday…. though we will be howling and snorting for the missing pigs, we must herd oursleves along and see what epic pieces have been pulled from the pig’s heads this month. 1pm at the Glen’s Centre- Captain Dermot ( i’m no pig ) Healy mentoring.
all the very best to all
