Father Tom’s Wager (jig)

December 22nd, 2008 at 3:10 pm (traditional irish flute)

Here’s a jig about a betting Priest, or a Priestly bet.  I don’t know how he fared in the gamble but the jig flutters on to this day.

There are a few versions of this knocking about.  This is more or less like the one in O’Neill’s Dance Music of Ireland.

A Fig For a Kiss (slip jig)

December 19th, 2008 at 8:59 am (traditional irish flute)

Here’s a slip jig which I was asked to post here.  It’s been so long since I posted anything that the requestor has probably forgotten requesting it.

I don’t know whether you need a special type of fig for a kiss; “can I have a fig please; one of those ones you use for … ?” and if so is it the same sort which helps with the digestive processes.  Maybe just typing this little ‘f’ word will ease the blockage in my tune posting pipeline.

I must go now and post some Santa cards.
