Here are some snaps of the talented dancers from Bright Lights.
Very sad news today of the passing of James Fenton, poet and author, one of the great champions of the Ulster-Scots language. Our condolences to all of his family and friends. "If there's another world, he lives in bliss: if there is none he made the best of this." Please share.
