Áimsir Bhreá ....

Tá an Áimsir go h-anna Bhreá Inniú
agus Is é sin mar atá an Áimsir le
cupla seachtaine anois - seachas Innié
nuair a raibh Baisteach Tróm

This will be a very rushed posting
because I only have 18 minuits access
to the Internet

Good News re: the 4 Podcasts = They are Accessable !!!!

[It must have been some sort of technical 'Glitch'
that caused difficulty accessing them 2-3 weeks ago]

Scince I lasted posted on this blog there has been Plenty
of Unexpected Events and Activities e.g.Travel in Co.Mayo
Playing Music to an Appreciative Audiance and Swiming
in the Atlantic Ocean and also as Always Composing Music !!!!

Often The Unexpected is a frequent occurance in Life
for example I figered that my access to the Internet
was Over for Today and maybe? even Over for the next
2-3 weeks?- Yet a few Moments ago I was walking past
an Unattended Computer with 20 minuits access left!
So oppurtunity presents Itself for a few more words!

Out in the Country People Often Assist Each Other
and in Ireland there is a Tradition known as Méitheal
[pronounced 'Mehhill'] and last week I found myself
Doing an Activity that is Traditional and Commonplace
in Conamara - I was Out on the Bog doing a Méitheal and
Yes it came about in a totally Unexpected Way as just
about Every Other Event that occured in the past few weeks

As for the Music ???? It is Continuous and Ongoing
There are Plenty of New Airs and Melodies Arriving
and I am Improving on my Piano/Keyboard Ability
of course I have yet to Learn how to play Chords

Usually I can Play an Air or Melody at the first attempt
and Sometimes I can come up with an Improvised Chord
Anyway I Really am Enjoying the Music
Either Playing my own Compositions
or Playing Airs and Melodies that I have heard Elsewhere
