Re: The Frankie Kennedy Winter school in donegal!Is anyone else going??
with any luck I'll be going, trying to get some friends here in England to come and share a house...I've been the last 3 or so years and it's the best. Lx
Re: The Frankie Kennedy Winter school in donegal!Is anyone else going??
Should be going... Lizzy, if you're still after someone to share a house shtick me name down... if I can be your friend...! And I'll have a car this year so if you want to do the ol' hop across to Limerick (where car will prob have been abandoned whilst we swan off back to England) and drive up that's fine. Alternatively I might spend christmas up at the grandparents' in Co.Down but will still take the car across. Anyways we've a few months to sort that out alright, even we might be able to organise ourselves in that time! (I'm saying 'we', I mean 'me'!)
Re: The Frankie Kennedy Winter school in donegal!Is anyone else going??
Oi, boyo, watch it! 'Twasn't my fault there last year! My old car was destroyed when a truck took exception to us, but I'm getting a new one in the next weeks... woohoo, shiny new car! You and Kasia had better come over for it by the way... along with Conan, we're going taking over the world... mwahaaa!
Re: The Frankie Kennedy Winter school in donegal!Is anyone else going??
haha yes looking foward to it already, I'll let you know about the house Trish don't know what's happening yet, have to see if Hazel, Josie etc etc are up for it, if not maybe we can go back to the hostel anyway if you have the car!! (new car, exciting! poor old Fonz) - and yes Jan, Kasia, Conán, you'd better all be there!
Love the fact we're discussing this in July,

Re: The Frankie Kennedy Winter school in donegal!Is anyone else going??
With any luck, I'll be there. It would be great to see you guys again! Hello to those I met in Milltown this year, and to those I know from Frankie Kennedy Winter schools in the past.
Re: The Frankie Kennedy Winter school in donegal!Is anyone else going??
Hey Kira!! How are you? Hope you can make it (hope I can make it!!)
...
David, depends what you want to do, fiddle (& other instrument) classes were for the first 4 days and I suppose you'd want to see which gigs were on to decide when to go.
New Year's eve is always a blast whether you go to the official party or just play tunes somewhere else, and the Altan gigs at the beginning of the new year are also always great!! So in other words I haven't really recommended which days to go but you can't really lose.
Good luck! ;)
Lizzy xx
P.S. David I'm staying with Rachel & Nick from about the 11th of August if you're around for some tunes, hoping to get to bideford...

I'm considering that. It is really very remote.

Yeah, a little, but not as much as Ittoqqortoormiit:

How about that for a location for next year's Willie Week? - a sure way to avoid the drunken eejits that spoiled this year's festival for some folk
