Here's a nifty jig I learned when I was first taking whistle classes in Baltimore, MD. My teacher may have given it a name, but darned if I remember it. I have put it in abc format in the hopes that someone may be able to play it and tell me what the name is *crosses fingers*, so I can call it out in session when folks ask.

This is called most often
Donnybrook Fair
or sometimes
The Humours of Donnybrook
or sometimes
The Love of My Life

It's one of my favourite jigs.

That wasn't hard, but you're wellcome! It was one of the first jigs i learned (from a Scoiltrad lesson -- not sure now if it was for flute or whistle).
