Deirdre, this is magic, I love it. You have the killer last line, poor lamb. I am a veggie lol. Are you Irish? I am from Waterford originally but live in Wicklow and Germany at the moment. Home is Wicklow and Germany is work. I just posted a piece on a new Ireland, a true reflection of life today through the eyes of a beggar I saw. Thanks for your comment.
