Because I like the music I have deliberately not looked too deeply into Irish history but there are one or two that I know I should not be playing. |

That reminds me of the time my mum and me went back to Derry to visit relations after my husband died, we went shopping down in the town and my uncle said we must get a mini cab back, but when we came out it was pouring with rain and there was black cab so we got into that but we could not understand why all these people were getting in and the driver stopped a little way up the road and a lady got out and the driver charged her a pound this happed twice more each time paying pound when it was our turn to get out I asked how much and the driver said a pound I thought it a bit strange as we had come about four miles, my uncle told us the black cabs inside the walls supported the IRA and the ones on the outside of the wall supported the UDA I was shocked I had given money to the IRA |
