The jug of punch I think he is reffering to is the 23rd of june!

@twas on the 23rd of June as I sit weaving all on my loom, I heard a thrush singing in yon bush and the song he sang was a jug of punch reldy for the di, redly for the diddly itle dootle itle" dont trust the spelling lol! but thats the version search 23rd of june into youtube and the Clancys dad a few versions of it!!

Let me know if you find out! There is an atheists' version that has the lines:

What more diversion can a man desire

Than to roast a priest on an open fire?

[SirCoughsalot]

I was hoping you would know. On a Dubliners video, Luke Kelly says "Jug of Punch" and everyone cheers and he says, "It's not that Jug of Punch; something else entirely." Which led me to believe there was another jug of punch.

[raymondcrooke]

Thanks for the compliment, ghostgal.

[raymondcrooke]

I give up. What's the other jug of punch?

[raymondcrooke]

Thanks, Isa. I also have great memories of Ireland.
