Seamus Creagh, highly influential fiddler, died yesterday. I saw him many a time in the Corner Bar in Skibbereen on Monday nights. I haven’t got a picture of my own – his place would be to the left of this picture, where the knees of a little boy can be seen.

This isn’t the interesting, focussed blog you might have been looking for… "Pica Pica" is, as I'm sure you knew, the name for the common magpie.
