2008 Tionol: 26th-30th March, Riverslea Sanctuary, Otaki Gorge.

Guest Piper Mickey Dunne.

 

A superb Tionol! Great weather, great catering (thanks to our hosts Chris and Lillian), and great tuition from our guest piper Mickey Dunne (Limerick) who not only got the best out of the players in lessons, but also laboured at the reed-bench to replace ailing reeds and to pass on his skills to our novice reed-makers.
