Hello there. I believe you may be a friend of my wife's _lyra_b as she's spoken of you much. Thanks for all the lovely music you've given her.

Ta.

(This is a great podcast by the way.)

Well, hello and good to meet you! I, too, have heard much of you. All good, of course! Your wife is a lovely woman. It's a pleasure to have someone else whom I like so much that is so interested in the thing that interests me most - Irish music.

I shall have to tell Shawn that you like the podcast! He'll be pleased. Have you been able to check out the FM Broadcast? Every Tuesday, Shawn does his show from his North Carolina radio station and then uploads it for the benefit of those of us not in his listening radius. This week's show is one of the most superior I have heard - just every song was "on" and great!

I have set us RSS feeds for the show and the news (I am the "news chick") at pwradiofm and pwradionews, respectively. That way when we update, it will show up on your flist.

Thanks for saying hi!

All good, eh - then I'm sure she exaggerates.

Thanks for the LJ links. I fear I have been very lax about LJ - and pretty much everything - lately, but I've got a bit of time on my hands now, as I'm sure you've heard, so I'll be able to catch up on podcasts and such.

Cheers, Natalie.

Well, you're Irish, aren't you? In that case, she would have to tone it down rather than exaggerate. ;)

Just sit back and relax while you can, because I am sure you will be back to the hustle and bustle of life before you know it!

Let me know if there are any particular types of artists you enjoy - I usually send news of NI bands / artists B's way, but I'd be happy to look out for whatever you are into as well. Ireland certainly is turning out some stellar musicians, still.

Slainte!
