mothers been at the mulled wine again
Sweet and all as it is …. Surely it’s for yourselves and not for us to be pouring our grubby little eyes over.
No such thing as privacy anymore.
Agreed. Just enjoy it, cry about it and laugh about it between yourselves.
Why do so many of us (me included at times, regrettably) feel the need to share everything with the world?

Your mam sounds great David.
That’s a wonderful and sad comparison.
Irish Mammies, the best in the world at guilt.

Hahah… how true.

well for some, off on their city-breaks the week before christmas
Mammy’s helped herself to the yuletide sherry a little early I think!
‘Think yer Mam’s had a drink there Daithi
But thanks for the share
T’was nice
Nice :)

The culchie-free city is truly our prize on Dec 24th. Great wit and banter about the pubs and no binge-drinking, tomfoolery or talking about Australia. Just dacent folk having the craic. Ya wouldn’t want to drive anywhere.
Ahem
I’m staying put

Jennings’s Rasa and a slice of Thoma
I dunno. They rarely live close to Mountjoy.
:)))))
probably cheaper and faster to get to Dublin from those places than from Kerry or Donegal… Europe is tiny.
