For sale

One musical tradition. Many careful owners. Many less careful owners. £500,000 o.n.o.

Bodhran players need not apply.

Fair play to ye. Many have sold out for less.

Will ye take payment in old, used notes?

I did not know Larry was selling …………….again

What he feck would you buy it for. Why not just steal it, like every other fecker?

I hope it’s not one of those "cut and shut" models….. half Irish/half Scottish or other type of hybrid.

£’s - Jaysus, do you not know we spend yo-yos in this country. Maybe then again, we don’t own this tradition anymore. Probably on the balance sheet of some Chinese financial…

I was reading the financial press. Based on rising wages in China, business is now taking things to Mexico. Apparently they can underprice slave labor there.

I suppose the tradition will get purchased by Investment Capital types from Grand Caymans, who will put lots of debt on it and clean out the coffers.

If ever there was a case to take before the advertising standards authority, this is it.

Why do you think they hold it not in Ireland, but on a feckin island?

That’s easy. Since it’s an island there’s plenty of water, & with drum schools you need to put out the ocassional fire ~ "Dozens of people spontaneously combust each year. It’s just not really widely reported."

It’s tradition.

Leper colonies have always been sited on islands.

… where nihilism is thriving.
