Third in the Blind Man Reel set

Here's the third tune in the Blind Man Reel set asked for by Gael Force -- courtesy of Conan, who has also posted the second tune in the set (also a Gan Ainm, in A dorian at http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display.php/1297), so I'm afraid we've done a bit of cheat to get them both in on the same day, sorry, Jeremy.

Oh, I forgot to say...the liner notes on "Time on Our Hands" (Siobhan Peoples and box player Murty Ryan) say that this tune to them strongly resembles the Forfar Hunt.

Jimmy's Return

As said by The Bumblebees - they learnt it off Box player Seamus Meehan
