@kittypants So sorry for your loss Sara. Thoughts with your family at this difficult time ❤️🙏🏻

@patrickdextervc My friends dad just passed last week. He was from Scotland and would be so proud of his team.

Loch Lomond, from the west of Ireland. Wishing Scotland well as they return to the World Cup after 28 years 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

@1964Leafs The wood doesn't warp no but it will create it's own ecosystem of moulds if you don't keep an eye on it! Dryness is what destroys wood instruments like this but you'll never have to worry about that in the west of Ireland

@patrickdextervc Doesn’t the dampness of the climate warp the instrument?

Victory! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 I'll keep sharing Scottish tunes till Scotland win the World Cup!

@Country2018gal She always stared out that way, I never learned what she was looking at, felt like she was keeping guard over the music

@patrickdextervc Beautiful. Am curious, what was the dog so interested in down the hill?

@rowdy_79 Soon I think

@patrickdextervc When will it be time to get a new puppy to carry on with.

I don’t know what she was watching, but having her beside me made playing cello outside in a field in Mayo feel a little less strange

@SammieLloyd81 🎶 😊

@patrickdextervc *Sees this post, connects in ear audio phones to play on loop at full volume.

Music is my cello version of Enya’s Only Time — one of the old cottage videos I’ve been finding again.

@postalmary Thank you

@patrickdextervc I'm so very sorry to hear about Nisha. I'm sure she was a wonderful companion. She was beautiful to look at on your videos. Losing a beloved pet is hard but all the wonderful memories will help. This poem helped me when I had to say goodbye to my dog...I hope it helps you. 🥰💔🤗

Last week, we said goodbye to our beautiful Nisha. She came to us as a rescue, after being found as a stray, and became a deeply loved part of our family, and part of the music too, appearing quietly in so many of the cottage videos. Thank you to everyone who noticed her, asked about her, and loved her from afar. The music in the video is called “Nisha”, it's a melody we used to sing it to her at home during Covid lockdown, and I later recorded it on my album Solace. She was deeply loved. We miss her so much

I’ve started going back through old cottage videos and keep finding Nisha there beside the music. Here she is on the left, close by as always, while I play a slow version of Turlough O’Carolan’s Bridget Cruise. Cello, garden, sunshine, and the small black dog who was so often part of it all.

@ArnieRozahKrogh I'm so sorry, such a beautiful dog Lyra. The grieving is so hard. I hope Nisha and Lyra are having a big run around together now ❤️

@patrickdextervc I’m so sorry for your loss. I just had to say goodbye to my girl Lyra 3 weeks ago. It’s so painful to have to make the decision to let her go. We’ll be grieving for a while more so a big virtual hug to you and fam. ❤️

@HillCallow Thank you, she was so special 💔

@patrickdextervc I am so, so sorry. Nisha was so beautiful and such an important part of your videos...🩷. Siobhán

@Fiona35352137 Thank you for your kind words, yes she just gave such beautiful quiet support, I'm so glad you felt you knew her, she was so special

@patrickdextervc So sorry for your loss of your beautiful Nisha. I don’t think I’ve ever watched you play without her being right there beside you, making sure everything is alright. She’s one of the dogs here I feel I know well even though I never met her. RIP beautiful Nisha. 🥲🥰🙏🙏

Molly Malone. Happy St. Patrick's Day from Ireland! 🍀

@RoseCityCupCake Oh no, that's awful, so sorry please report them when you can. Thank you so much for bringing this to my attention

@patrickdextervc This person is claiming to be you, origin in Nigeria (a fair ways from Ireland), (#patrickdexter_2)

Happy St. David's Day! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
