This one is named for the fact that our session is the second sunday of each month. I am not sure what type of tune it is besides NOT being a jig

So,
These are the first tunes that I have put together. I started playing whistle in earnest about 16 months ago. Still getting up to speed and learning to remember things without using the dots as a crutch
Any comments will be much appreciated. Which version of Blue Jigg do you like better?
