We're Having a Ceilidh!

People often wonder two things about Ceilidh - what it is and how to pronounce it.

Basically it's a traditional Scottish party with music and dancing. They are also traditional in Ireland.

You can see the Wikipedia page here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceilidh which gives a modern (and slightly International) description.

How to pronounce it?

Kaylay (with the second syllable kept short).

For those interested in languages, in Gaelic the "dh" is silent. This is very confusing for those travelling in the North of Scotland trying to make sense of road signs and place names.

Come along and enjoy the party.
