I spent a lovely week in Northern Ireland on business in April. If you've never been, make plans to go IMMEDIATELY!! There is so much to see and do, I was exhausted every day, and we barely scratched the surface. One of the (many) highlights was a private luncheon at the home of chef Simon Dougan and his lovely wife Jilly. I had the privilege of being asked to sing after lunch. I sang "The Flower of Magherally", which says that "I met my love in Banbridge Town", and "She's the queen of the County Down". We had literally driven through Banbridge that morning, and we were in county Down--It was quite surreal!!
