Perhaps if the Flatley crowd were asked nicely, they'd stay on a day and do some dancing to The Pogues...

Perhaps if the Pogues crowd were asked nicely, they'd turn up a day early and do some dancing for his Lordship? :lol:

I saw highlights (on telly) of the Chieftains at this year's Celtic Connections and they had two ACE Irish dancy blokes doing their stuff with them. The fact that one of them looked like a young Charles Manson only added to the appeal.

Anyhoo, back to the subject at hand. I am about to apply for a new job with my existing employer which will involve quite a lot of work in our Midlands office which is VERY near Lichfield, hence I am already thinking if I get it I'm sure I can fit it into my expenses somehow...!!!

Ah yes, I remember him. He was dancing with them at Cambridge too. I'd wondered who it was he reminded me of... :lol:

One suspects Philip will be secretly turning up a day early to catch the lord of the dance. Also I saw an interview with Mr Flatley on Parkinson and he did the same wearing a tie round your neck but dont tie it like i have seen Shane Macgowan do. Is this an Irish thing?
