I talked to her on the internet messages don't know what she's going to be doing. You seems to be pretty and I don't know what can I say for an Amazon card. But she says she's beautiful and I believe her. Once in awhile she will send me a selfie❤😂

:-) Thanks Jimmy, I appreciate the nice comment. Lot's of people are willing to criticise but not so many are willing to be positive with their remarks. Thanks for taking the time to be nice. :-) G. Wishing you well. :-)

Cheers and take care. G.

Thanks Bill, it was a great day even though it rained hard :-)

:-) Thank you for that information. I heard a friend of mine, Pat, doing this song in a pub I go to. I could not find a full version of it on the web and so I recorded this version. I think this is a truly lovely song with great melody and I don't doubt there are far better than me that could do it. I do hope someone picks up on it. It really is beautiful :-)

Here's Iain's words from his cd cover. I don't know how to share the tune with you - are you based in Glasgow area? Jim and John include this song in their repertoire and perform at various venues (think they were support at Stirling Folk Club this evening) - they are at Nova Scotia Folk Club in Bishopbriggs Fort Theatre most Wednesdays (check to make sure it is on - sometimes goes to other places for a night!) 1 THE BRAES O APPIN ( copyright Iain Ingram) Wi the darkness o winter drawing near When autumn leaves are falling And the swallows disappear When the love o a night is the fire glow Like setting suns remembered When we baith were young and free Tumbling doon the braes o Appin Tae the sea. Chorus On the braes, the braes o Appin Ah fell in love wi you Love ah thocht would last a summer Never dreamt a lifetime through Laughing children That once was you and me Tumbling doon the braes o Appin Tae the sea. In Lochaber aroon by Aonach Mor We met as strangers walkingHeading doon Loch Linnhe’s shore Shared the sunlight, the mist, and early dew Ah sang o love and beauty Tae the girl entwined wi me Tumbling doon the braes o Appin Tae the sea. Chorus In the shadows o Morvern nestled doon Ower Mull the sun was sinkingAt the rising o the moon In the morning awoke tae seagull cries A smir was clouding Lismore Ah recall as you and me Tumbled doon the braes o Appin Tae the sea. Chorus. NOTES In the summer of 1995, I travelled to Appin with a group of friends for the 70th birthday celebration of an old crony by the name of Jack Scorgie. The evening’s entertainment took place in a barn on Jack’s farm. The following morning I remember looking out over the sea to the islands of Mull and Lismore. Although the weather was dull and misty, I thought it was one of the loveliest places I had ever visited. I wrote this song for Jack in December of he same year.

Thanks very much for that information and I appreciate the effort put into it. It would be great if someone else could post a really good version of the song on the internet that could stand along side Pat's and my own. The more the merrier. :-)

someone called walshtrack50 has uploaded (his?) version of Braes o Appin - - -he plays it much slower than Iain does, and a couple of lines slip away from Iain's melody -- but in the main the tune is more true to the original. - You can also catch a rare glimpse of Iain Ingram singing The Final Ship on youtube -- this was at the Rose Loupt Out book launch at Clydebank College a few years ago,

I have no idea why three's a line through some of my text?!

It is not my song Calum. It is by Iain Ingram and it is my basic interpretation of it. I could not find a full version on the web and so did this. It is a beautiful song and I thank a fellow called Pat who sometimes plays in a pub with me for pointing me to it. Thanks for your nice comment.
