			 ...HIS COUSINS & HIS AUNTS


	I knew someone from Ireland once.  He introduced me
	to RASHERS of Irish Bacon, Irish pubs & music, & POTEEN.
	He told me that one sight that you should NEVER miss
	if you go to Ireland is the CLIFFS OF MOORE.

	If you're curious about the Irish way of life,
	you should see this NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC article:

	IRISH WAYS LIVE ON IN DINGLE - page 551 April 1976


	AUDIO
	-----
	James Galway "The Wayward Wind" (RCA; 1982; RCD1-4222)
	      Some fantastic flute playing.
	      The Irish penny whistle is great, too.
              He's performed with the BOSTON POPS.

	James Galway "Song of the Seashore - and other melodies
		      of JAPAN!"
		      (RCA; 1979; RCD1-3534)
		      Here he performs with the
		      TOKYO STRING ORCHESTRA.

	The CHIEFTAINS are also great purveyors of IRISH MUSIC!

	It's in the Waltham White pages.

	And there's the BLACK ROSE near Boston's Quincy Market.
	That place, in addition to food, has music, too.

    If you're planning on a trip to Great Britain, there
    are some beautiful books out there.
    One book that I picked up at the New England Bookfair
    in Newton was so good I don't have it.  A friend borrowed it.
    I believe it was named ILLUSTRATED GUIDE TO BRITAIN and was done
    by the English Automobile Association (AA).

    I have a couple of others by them that are also terrific.
    Filled with pictures so that you can ARMCHAIR travel there, too.

    "AA Illustrated Guide to Country Towns & Villages of Britain"
    (Drive Pubs; London; 1985)
    If you remember Stan Laurel & Oliver Hardy (Laurel & Hardy)
    and you were a BIG fan.... you might like  a trip to
    where STAN LAUREL was born (Ulverston - see page 273).
    His real name was Arthur STANLEY Jefferson.
    There's a Laurel & Hardy museum there where they show
    Laurel & Hardy films all day long!
    What's also interesting is that this book says that
    Lancashore is famous for comedians.

    "AA Travelers' Color Guide to Britain"
    (British Heritage Press; New York; 1985)
    It includes 48 MOTOR tours plus
    a special London section.

    The museums are excellent in London.
    Here's a handy TINY book that covers the ART MUSEUMS
    of the WORLD!!

    THE SIMON & SCHUSTER ART MUSEUM GUIDE
    (Simon & Schuster; New York; 1981)

    Are you HUNGRY for British food.
    Here's one that also covers IRISH & SCOTTISH food, as well:

    THE COOKING OF THE BRITISH ISLES
    (Time-Life; New York; 1969)
    And from page 64 of the spiral-bound cookbook that accompanies it:

    YORKSHIRE PUDDING
    -----------------
      2 eggs                             1 cup milk
    1/2 tsp salt                         2 tbsps roast beef drippings
      1 cup flour                          (or substitute 2 tbsps lard)

      BEAT the eggs and salt with a whisk or electric beater until frothy.
      SLOWLY add the flour, beating constantly.
      Then POUR in the milk in a thin stream and
      BEAT until the mixture is smooth and creamy.)
      REFRIGERATE for at least ONE hour.

      PREHEAT the oven to 400 degrees F.
      In a 10 by 15 by 2 1/2 inch roasting pan,
      HEAT the fat over moderate heat until it splutters. (NOT FOR KIDS)
      Briefly heat the batter again and pour it into the pan.
      BAKE in the middle of the oven for 15 minutes,
      reduce the heat to 375 degrees F,
      and BAKE for 15 minutes longer,
      or until the pudding has risen over the top of the pan
      and is crisp & brown.
      Divide the pudding into portions &
      serve immediately.

      YORKSHIRE PUDDING is always served with Roast Beef in
      England.  The best I've ever had was at the
      STRAND HOTEL in London (where MEN are required to
      wear a Jacket & a Tie).

      And if you get to Liverpool, don't forget to bring
      this along:

     You've heard people RAVE about Gilbert & Sullivan but
     you're in shock when you see the price of a CD containing
     their sounds.  Well now there's WEEKEND CLASSICS.

     I picked up a copy of the:

     GILBERT & SULLIVAN WEEKEND
     done by the world famous D'Oyly Carte Company
	      with the famous Royal Philharmonic Orchestra
	      under the direction of Royston Nash.
	      (London; 1990; 430 144-2)

     All this cost me only $6 at Newbury Comics.

     Remember TOM LEHRER's song about the "CHEMICAL ELEMENTS".
     Have you wondered where the skeleton of that song was from?
     The theme music is from the PIRATES OF PENZANCE SONG
     "I am the very Model of a Modern Major-General".
     I'm sure you've been up nights trying to solve this puzzle.

    A easy way to break into literature of any sort is
    via short stories.  Here's a few books of English ones:

    (Oxford University Press; Oxford; 1988)

    ANTHONY TROLLOPE

    And, with-out a doubt:

    THE RIVALS OF SHERLOCK HOLMES
    edited by Hugh Greene
    (Penguin Books; Baltimore, Maryland; 1975)

    And here's a book you mustn't leave Earth without:
    THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY
    by Douglas Adams
    (Pocket Books; New York; 1981)
    There was a Radio show on this on PBS.

    AND if you're wondering if JAMES BOND stories are
    still being written.  They are.  Here's one:

    ROLE OF HONOR

    (G.P. Putnam's Sons; New York; 1984)


    For those folks looking into investing in Historical Glass,
    here's a good place to start:

     SCOTLAND

     A few handy items from there.  There's a SCOTTISH store
     up in OSSIPEE, NEW HAMPSHIRE if you're looking
     for things Scottish.   And if you get a chance,
     travel up to NOVA SCOTIA (New Scotland) in Canada.
     Or if that's a WEE BIT to far for you, at least travel
     up to NEW BRUNSWICK, Canada.  They've got some great
     bakeries up there that have Scottish pastries.
