[Rita C.]

All these pages and pages of chatter and I missed most of them because I never got a notification! Terry, watch out for the late night magnetic pull towards the 'return' button on your computer! Many's the slip....ask me how I know. :lol: I really want to do this challenge but I am away from home and don't have very much fabric with me. But I will try and come up with something. Really enjoying the banter folks.

Where are you Rita are you working?

[Rita C.]

I am working and playing in Dingle, Co. Kerry. I have a couple of concerts in Sept and Oct which I have to learn and relearn ( :wink: ) some material for, and this is a great place for peace and quiet. We have also been trying out the idea of renting out our guesthouse here by being the overflow for our neighbour's 4-star B&B. I have had the notion for a while of creating a quilting retreat here so this is a good way of testing whether I can cope with that or not. So far so good. I also have a gig this Friday in Dingle. Come on over! :lol:

Wish, wish...wish I could...can't ...wish for Rita on tape....now that'd be good !!

[E.M. T.]

Rita, I'll keep your idea in mind, as my DH is retiring after this school year, and we are hoping for a trip to the UK. Looking at VRBO . Wouldn't it be nice to be your first guests? We'll be good, I promise.

Wow Rita I'm packing my bags.................

I don't know Terrie, that new photo of yours..... you look like you could be trouble. :lol: BTW what does VRBO stand for?

Wish, wish...wish I could...can't ...wish for Rita on tape....now that'd be good !!

Marilyn, what do you mean wish for Rita on tape....measuring tape? video tape? cassette tape? Have you not moved on to CDs yet?

Wendy I'll be waiting at Kerry airport. :lol:

VRBO stands for something like Vacation Rental By Owner. It's a web site where you can find vacation rentals that are privately owned:

Rita, I would LOVE to hear you sing in person, and somewhere in Ireland. Big Brother has tracked an ancestor to somewhere in Ireland, maybe one year he'll join me in a venture to find the homeland.

I wasn't sure I'd get a piece done, but "Yesterday, I tried a new technique, tipped off by TQS" :lol: I don't know if it will be show-worthy, but I'm trying. I will have the nerve to post it here.

[E.M. T.]

Well....Rita...Guess I'm showin' my age....No working "tape" playin' things here any more....CDs ,PC, just got an Ipad ! :roll:
Yep..Gotha on those...and love your beautiful voice and DHs work too. For sure there could always be more !! Pretty
sure I won't get to Ireland in person, so will always enjoy it vicariously thru various media .

[Rita C.]

Thanks Marilyn. Susan, we will await your arrival in due course. Thanks for the explanation Nancy - interesting website.

When we drove around Ireland in the fall of 2012, my husband and I got to meet Rita and her husband for lunch. Such fun.

The next place we found that sold CDs (not the bank type!) we bought two of Rita's albums and enjoyed them all through our drive. It was so special, her voice is amazing. Now we listen to them at home and it reminds us of a wonderful trip and time with a quilting buddy and her sweetie.

It really is a small world!

Thanks Rita.

When I showed my grandson flat Rita he wanted to know who she was so I pulled her up online and let him listen to her. At the time he was 16--he was impressed.
