Why yes, I am Irish. Only partially – but a little goes a long way.
Therefore, in order to not be thrown off the internets, it is necessary for me to provide a smattering of Irishy in this post today. Which for me is a rich tapestry run through with words, first and foremost.
Although conditions are not optimal of course, various usual options are not available.
This will at least be a placeholder – for better times!
