The letter is U, for Unicorns
You can read here all about the ancient history of this amazing mythical creature, but if you want the up-to-date version tune in to the Irish Rovers who lament the failure of the Unicorn to quite make it on to the Ark.....
A few months ago I went to hear the Irish Rovers on their last world tour, and was as delighted with them as when we were all young and they were a group of wonderful vibrant young Irish immigrants who made their debut as folk singers in Canada.....
For more unusual Us visit here at ABC Wednesday, with thanks to Denise and Roger and all their upstanding helpers.

We dance to this in our over sixties exercist class on Wednesday afternoons Hildred.
We do actions too - it is great fun.
That sounds like fun, Pat - I can see stretching the chin out like the long necked geese!!!
Beautiful shot of the unicorn. Don't see many of them around any more...
I know someone who adores unicorns.
My ABC WEDNESDAY
I own that song on about 3 albums!

Ahhh....the Unicorn. fabulous choice for the letter U!
We listed to the You Tube and remembered how back in the 60s folk music was so popular. We were too busy raising kids to take part in most of what the 60s is known for (fortunately I suppose) but we certainly do remember that music. Wasn't it wonderful? How lucky you are to have been able to see them on their last tour.
Interesting information.
I like Irish music. This reminds me of country and western!
Have a great week, Hildred!

I love Irish folk music and have enjoyed a lot of it in bars and taverns in Dublin, where we used spend our summer holidays.
A great favourite of the time was a band called The Dubliners, they were famed for their recording of The Wild Rover.
All great stuff!
Best wishes,

Its years since I remember hearing that song so I enjoyed singing along with the chorus!
I have never heard the Unicorn Song...enjoyed the listen♪ http://lauriekazmierczak.com/unlikely/
I was helping a student write, she wanted to write about a unicorn.
