BBC Radio Ulster - Kintra, A trip to California, a Canadian connection and The Antrim Show

Two stories from North America and an agricultural show closer to hame! 

Helen Mark presents stories from the world of Ulster Scots. Rab’s been to a pipe band and clan event in – of all places California! Jonnie meets members of the Cape Breton Fiddlers Association during their visit to the north coast and further discusses Ulster Scots connections with North America. Meanwhile, Willie had just as much fun without going to far – he met some real characters at the Antrim Agricultural Show! 

The team loves to hear from listeners with their comments about the programme, or with a yarn or song or poem to share or an Ulster-Scots event to promote. You can contact them at kintra@bbc.co.uk.
