although i have doubts about the validity of medieval ideas of st. patrick and the druids...a touch of religious spin maybe?!...there is no doubting my Irish heritage
my family from Southern Ireland
Cork
Kilkenny
the Gauls, Byrnes, Flahavan and Ó Súileabháin
plus the so-far nameless ancestors.
i can almost hear them all getting in the drinks and their instruments out and preparing to have a weekend of celebrating!
so in my own way i shall raise a small tipple of my own sloe gin later today for my homeland
