I remember the time the Black and Tans came when we were all in bed. They marched the brother out of the house into the middle of a field, put him up agin a wall, one bullet to the back of the head, bang, bang! In broad daylight, no less! Sure he's livin' beyond in America now.

That was around the time a nanny came to live with us and taught us how to sing.

The bitch then went and married our widowed father and we ended up climbing mountains...
