Anyone know a name for this?
I learned it at a workshop last summer taught by Kathy Selby. She learned it in a pub session in Ballydehob, hence the name.
Thanks.

Hetty, it had already been moved to the 'Comments' for "The Maids of Ardagh", the earlier contribution, 2001, with 'corrections' made to the transcript. I didn't repeat the name "Ballydehob" because it was an obvoius case of not bothering to check for pre-existing titles and just grabbing the first thing that came to mind ~ "I can't remember the title for this. We're in Ballydehob. I'll call it 'The Ballydehob Polka'..."
