How long is Patrick D’Arcy playing the pies and what age did he start at?
He started on Blueberry pies at the age of 2 1/2 then progressed to mulberry at the tender age of 12. 
Sorry…couldn’t resist.

Why on earth wouldn’t you write to him directly if you want personal information like this? If you can give him a valid reason for your questions I’m sure he’d be happy to oblige. If you can’t … DUCK!

…and don’t forget, he spent at least 5 years playing cakes first!
i’m certain he was playing the scones from early childhood!
D’Arcy? Who the hell is D’Arcy?
Mr D’Arcy to you sir!
Or was that Pride and Prejudice
There is an obscure report in an Irish medical journal just about 36 years or so ago about a complicated pregnancy and subsequent delivery. Apparently, some bearded male child was born in Dublin to conclude the pregnancy. The mother had reported that, in the last trimester of her pregnancy, the fetus had an unusual double time knee and foot tap whenever she listened to I-trad music. Also, she would get these jabbing pains in her side, thought to be related to curious elbow movements. On the eve of his first day of life one of the nursery attendants found an uilleann pipe chanter in his crib. “Who would ever do such a thing to a child” exclaimed the nurse. “He’ll be fussin’ with dastardly reeds the rest of his born days.” "This boy child doesn’t need pipes because he is to be destined for “The Holy Order,” she said. “Somebody call a priest and sign him up with the Christian Brothers.” The rest…is history.

Here’s a haiku
The monk
He sits pensively
thinking of the essentials:
prayer, food, and her.
Our father, who art in… well never mind
