Last night we closed up early at Albannach and headed across town to our friends Irish pub called Robin, this pub has a great loyal following and serves up great tap beer and has very tasty meat pies made by my wife. I have been attending Robins St Patricks day parties since they opened and now with more Celtic musicians in Niigata the St Patrick day party is even better. Last night I joined in with my trump / Jaw harp and had a great time. My wife also got to play another members Irish harp which she really enjoyed.
