Abstract

I had the great pleasure of attending the 60th anniversary congress of FICE (Fédération Internationale des Communautés Educatives), held in Helsinki in June 2008. I met conference-goers who had warm memories of the 2004 congress in Glasgow, and particularly the ceilidh in the Barony Hall. I have my own special memories of international guests, many in national dress, attempting dances like the Orkney Strip the Willow, to the wild music of incomparable ceilidh band, Last Tram tae Auchenshuggle.
