Toronto Council meets today! It's the Annual Pre-Budget Mini-Meeting, or APBMM. A limited agenda, with items from just a couple of committees. Still lots to talk about: denser avenues, old city hall, stormwater. I'll tell you what happens. Meeting stream is here: www.youtube.com/live/7Qtllze...

Me: I really should learn more mix and dorian tunes this year, and more reels Also me: practices G major jig

Happy to report that the trad was very well received at the open mic last night

The fun thing about Irish trad is sometimes you find a new favourite polka!!
