So are wives cats or dogs? Debate
Dogs and their owners are annoying needy simpletons. Cats will disappear for a few days and be perfectly happy with minimal attention on return.
Mind you the toxoplasmosis isnât much craic

The whole thing was a cod
It used to just be called Grange, until they built a new one 50 years ago and pretended it was 5000 years old to bring a few tourists to Meath. Fair play to them.
Itâs like the 40 dolphins they have trapped in the bay below in Dingle

The outside is mostly a modern reconstruction. The quartz front wall is largely speculation. They found a big load of quartz lying around the front and just guessed that it used to stuck to the front wall.
The entrance stone with the front spiral was buried until they started investigating it. The inside is largely legit. The central chamber with the big high roof is legit, as is the separate top passage and window for the sunlight.
They found a lot of Roman coins and stuff on top and they think that it might been used as a Roman colony or outpost, presumably because it was a prestigious place and a symbol of power. Thatâs all speculation though.
The big news recently about Newgrange is that they did a DNA test one of the guys buried in it and they can tell that his parents were brother and sister. That doesnât link with it being a Roman settlement. Theyâve also linked this to the ancient Gaelic name for the site, which meant âHill of Sinâ. Theyâve also speculated that maybe that was part of the ritual - that a brother fucking his sister was used to keep the solar cycle moving. So everyone thinking that weâve this beautiful ancient pagan spirituality but really the whole thing was just sick.

Thatâs why I carry a shtick and/or a big bucket of nuts.
