The Salle de Sion was set up (initially) as a cabaret style lounge but it wasn't too long before people started to move things around and all the space we had created us changed. In lot's of ways that was ok too because people felt more comfortable moving from place to place.
The evening started with the cutting of Carmel Street's birthday cake (her birthday is on Sunday) then, of course, the party began.
Tony Brennan sang his song about Jerusalem and then we had more songs, jokes, stories, poems, skits and laughter and everyone seemed to enjoy the craic immensely.
Some of the group, including the Sisters of Sion and some of the volunteers, didn't always understand the nuance of some of the stories or words but joined in the laughter.
Again, my camera didn't work all that well or maybe it was my skill (or lack of it) behind the camera but none of the photos were really in focus.
So that's the report on the concert - suffice to say there are some extremely talented people in our group and it is going to be difficult to say goodbyes one Sunday night and Monday morning.
