The awful bridge disaster will obviously cast a shadow of sadness over the Festival, it's so close.
I hope the deceased victims have been recovered by then. R.I.P.

If anyone gets the chance to speak with Patrick and Steve of Gaelic Storm, give them a hug (well, maybe just a handshake if you're a guy) from me (Maggie Ryan).
If they look blank, remind them of the night the Titanic Exhibition opened in Orlando, and we drank Guinness and sang ourselves hoarse until 2am at the Cricketers Arms.
Tell them I'm the redhead from Tipperary,who was President of the Orlando Irish Club.
You can also tell them I am still no better at reaching the high notes than I was then!
But I can still dance a reel or two.
Patrick and Steve are the only two original Band Members from those days.
They are hilarious......just read their bio's on the website:
