I'm trying to find a link on youtube to a song, Irish, I think, with a chorus that starts:
With a toot on the flute
And a twiddle on the fiddle-o
----------
Like a herring on a griddle -o
Can anyone help?

That’s Phil the Fluter’s Ball or something like that. Just google it and you’ll surly find a link.

Of course! I was thinking somehow of Mike McGilligans Ball, which exists , but not so lively.
Thanks all .

A favourite of my late mum.
Definitely Phil the Fluter's Ball!
