Shrove Tuesday at the Franciscan Study Centre


Gathered at Franciscan International Study Centre for our traditional 'pancake party', all of us did a star turn. Catherine did a duet of John Denvers 'Country Road', with one of the FISC lecturers Kathleen Ann, also from America. Betty did an African royalty dance with fellow African students Annette, Alice and Jabu, and also an individual song in her native tongue. Sarah read a poem about an 'Irish Immigrant.

Dharma from India played a 'picnic song' from Goa, called 'Whose Daughter is She?'






Jack from Ireland sang a beautiful Irish Ballad
