I play a lot of traditional Irish tunes with my friends. It's well

Scottish fiddling, and there are songs and tunes in both areas that are
closely related. It's said the reason for all that is the regular
migrations of seasonal workers.

If you kept your mouth closed, Franki-boy, you would seem less ignorant.
Get a map, look at where Donegal is, right next to the separate country
of Northern Ireland, read up about the Plantation, and even you might
eventually come to the conclusion that "migrations of seasonal workers"
had absolutely nothing to do with any similarity of folk music between
Donegal and adjacent Scottish-settled countries, and consanguinity and
an open border everything.


Lol, thus speaks someone who read it on Wikipedia or was it the local
tourist signage.

Andre Jute What a smug, ignorant moron


What was that book that you claimed summarised all of world history;
Gideons, Gibbons, whatever. I love it when, after claiming expertise,
people show their ignorance by claiming 'Northern Ireland' when it has SFA
to do with the subject matter.
