    The inspiration for this jig came to me while I was on the ferry to Clare from Tarbert. We were going over to Miltown Malbay for the Willie Clancy week and I went up on the top deck. It was a very nice calm day and I was looking across to Killimer and started to whistle a few notes. I recorded them on my phone and composed the jig later.
