Thans lads! I love the sound of it - I sometimes think the D/G box gets too squeaky.

Well here's my attempt http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZ6HkRu11CU

Nice tune I regret I didn't look at it earlier. If somebody has an idea of tunes to follow it please let me know I'd like to make a set (:)

Aye I see the similarity  (:) I didn't watch any vids from this thread before tonight as I wanted to work the tune out without any influence. But it didn't help ;D It seems we've been thinking the same way :P

Had to have a go at this one...not often we get a TOTM that can be played on a 5-button box without moving your hand!

works for me - did you put Gneeveguilla in the search box and click the FIND button?

I'm sure I've seen that tune lately called a different name though...

Time to move on to a new tune folks; as ever, late postings and recordings are always welcome.

Compliments(again) of folk photographer Jeff Dantin - notre homme grand, Jean blanchard  - bearded with hat in the centre.

Chateau d'Ars 2011    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFg6f8yrAFw (though not our present  tune)

I had the pleasure (on a different day) of thanking Jean for his kind permission to explore la Roulante. The year that Blanchard and several other bagpipers abseiled down the front of St Charter castle playing their bagpipe as a spectacle is still fondly remembered!

May I ask:
"LNB" = ?

Thought this might turn up, but could not find.

Thanks,
