I tend to scrape a bow across some fiddle strings when I can. I started playing a few years ago, got really into it for a couple of years, but then the practising began to wane. Now I am mad for the oul trad again.

These days I play with a big bunch of both adults and children at the Glengormley School of Traditional Music, near Belfast. It is brill !!

I also play in a monthly session and as often as I can with some friends.
