Friends gather at the schoolhouse.

Ah yes, I had a stolen weekend [one where I thought I would be working ] but i managed to get off!!

So Sunday morning -  being my favorite time of all, fire blazing, tea and toast, I was quite content....when Zinda and Pat called in, then Pam and Paul called in and last, but not least, Bren dropped by.....Sooooh--- we had a session in "The Gathering Room"! 

A few songs and craic (craic is perfectly legal in Ireland 'cos it means fun) [Ed and Paul on guitar] I was having a ball, jokes and stories were flying and the craic was mighty!!!

 

 

Pam was taking photos left, right and center [for the blog] ...pics of treasure I have gotten over the last few weeks and interesting corners and artifacts about the place. Hope you had a good weekend too!. Enjoy the pics! Angie x
