Keogh's Image 1Not her silly.

She’s a pot full of them.

The winner of yesterday’s competition and a hamper full of Keogh’s Shamrock Crisps and other stuff is long-time Broadsheet commenter/first time winner Clampers Outside, who wrote:

Please give the Keogh’s Shamrock Crisps Hamper to my Mom and Pop because of this….

‘Sham Around!’ (with apologies to House of Pain)

Yo Keogh!
Pack it up, pack it in
Open bag to begin
I came to win
Rattle tha’ potato skin
I won’t tear the pack up
Sure you’d better back up
Try and deny my Ma a win and Pop an’ crew will act up
Shamrock is the best stock… come on!
Come on, throw your hands up
If you’ve got the cream let it sour for the green
Ballinskelligs is the best, someone’s talking jest
Yo, I’ll bust a potatoe eye
And then I’ll take the pinks home
Eat it, dunk it
Chomps be munching
And I got more rhymes than there’s crips that are dunking
Kerry is tops
Sure ’nuff I got me Pops he’s nowhere near over the Hill
More spuds for Mom and Pops

[Chorus]

I came to get a Nom [2x]
So get your Keogh’s and munch a nom
Munch a nom [3x]
Nom up! Nom up! and munch down.

 

Fair play though, in fairness.

A sample of some of the many portraits shot by photographer Gabriele Galimberti in the course of an 18-month trip around the world where he documented children posing with their favourite toys. Of the project, entitled ‘Toy Stories’, Galimberti sez:

The richest children were more possessive. At the beginning, they wouldn’t want me to touch their toys, and I would need more time before they would let me play with them. In poor countries, it was much easier. Even if they only had two or three toys, they didn’t really care. In Africa, the kids would mostly play with their friends outside.
