'Were you at the battle of Ballynahinch?' so goes 'General Munroe' and of course when I hear that great Irish song I always remember the filming we did for a series of programmes on Ulster's Rebellion in 1798 at the Ulster American Folkpark. I went over with Allan and Rosemary of the 23rd whose website this photo's from - I'm on the left and a United Irishman is holding the flag.It was pretty hairy reenacting redcoats in Northern Ireland I can tell you - nobody much else had the balls to do it but we did and had a few scrapes along the way but nothing serious. Of course that was then and things are a lot more easygoing over there nowadays. Happy times. Maybe I ought to put some clips up on Youtube.
