Dublin

I’m sitting in the garden today, working from home and with the weather being so nice a saying of my fathers popped into my head from days of old.

“It’s a day that would dry shite in a dog “

What saying did you grow up with from your parents.

What was it Billy Connolly said... Doctor: 'Your boy was hit by a bus.. He has a fractured arm, fractured skull, 3 broken rib and a shattered pelvis... Oh and by the way.. His under pants is a fucking disgrace "
