Posting from Ireland...

Yeah, I'm ready - we're having Irish stew tonight (stewing lamb, onions,
carrots, spuds) and beef & Guinness stew with cabbage on the side
tomorrow - I know it's two stews, but tonight we'll be in the pub for a
while (the tourists are arriving in their hordes!) and tomorrow it's the
parade in the village, so again we'll be out for a while, and I'm not
sure how sober I'll be on our return. Not going to attempt cooking
whilst wobbly again - I've made that mistake before!

Breakfast tomorrow will be fried duck eggs, grilled rashers, black &
white puddings and mushrooms - plenty to soak up the inevitable
Guinness! Not sure how successful the parade will be tomorrow - it's
been both sunny and snowy today (though it didn't settle).

Bumped into a friend in the village earlier who told me he's taking his
sheep Baabara and her 2 new lambs into the parade tomorrow - his pigs
are too big this year to take part!
