Happy Val Dillon Day

Just after breakfast with the girls on V Day.

Giraffe Hearts for Starters

On this the weekend where S got her Tripp Trapp from the postman and we had to arrange the whole place to accommodate another little human at the dinner table.
So Happy V Day people.

And remember, aside from a good pension.....

  1. Have you mentioned Charting the Beatles afore? Because you can't aforemention something if you never mentioned it ...afore.
    The song on the compilation where the guy is speaking in German- he's talking about the only good government is a government that doesn't govern or something along those lines - thats the level of my German anyway- poor even after 2 years 2 months and a week- but who's counting??
    I had a dream last night me and my girls, you and your girls, Liamak and their girl - basically all of us kiddy blessed met for a big reunion and I think it was upstairs in the Keogh Mansion in Jigginstown :) Sadhbh was standing and nearly walking but she was really miniature, Matilda was like a giant baby but still like a 3 month old, I think Roisín was like a 6 year old. I know Fionn was there with H & M but they didn't say much.

    Check this out if you haven't before http://www.newyorker.com/online/podcasts/fiction - nice for the train journey, there's A Man of the World by Frank O'Connor on there, read by Julian Barnes (while discussing it he mentions that a negative side-effect of putting Frank O'Connor on the Inter / Leaving Cert syllabus is that people might avoid him later on - an effect he describes as "Peig Sayers Syndrome" !! )

  2. I retract unreservedly the query regarding "aforementioned" as you had indeed mentioned it afore. Humble apologies.
