We went to this last year and it was fabulous! Except for the part where I had to buy 2 chicken dinners to get my tummy full. There is no vegetarian option. It would be nice if a portion of baked beans was provided to fill out the chicken dinner. It isn't very often I walk away hungry from what's supposed to be a full dinner. If you want a few more calories, get the pork bbq, it comes with a roll, the chicken doesn't.
All that Irish music and no dancing. Sigh. What do you think the chances are that we can scrounge up 4 couples for a square set? Or a bunch of folks for a ceili dance? We can have our own Shindig At The Channel! I will wear my dancing shoes. Who will be my partner? Update: Dave Campbell might show up and he wants to learn how to dance. It looks like I have my partner. Which dance shall it be, Dave? I know, a polka set! Anyone here know the Kerry Set? A lovely waltz, my favorite? A jig? Or a smattering of steps, that's all I remember from my childhood.
