If you were enjoying a quiet beer and a god botherer came up to tell you that you were going to hell, you wouldn’t react like that man?
No. I’d be polite. He was an ignorant pig.

I haven’t read it yet. I’d say he’d be a decent author. Read his kind of autobiography years ago. Hilarious!

Seems harsh
Cowardly punches from behind should be appropriately punished, as should assaults on refs, the sentence was veering on lenient

Just back from the bog after turning turf. Such a tranquil place, no better place to clear the head. Nature in its abundance this evening, the deer amble and graze while crossing the banks to settle in shelter for the night, a pine marten on the prowl and a pair of pheasants, a cock and hen together which I haven’t seen in a while. Didn’t hear the cuckoo yet

Midges, hunger, thirst, stooping, heat, hardship…

It’s about the timing. Early morning before the heat. Use the day to straighten out. Down in the evening as it cools, out before those bastard midges rise. Love it…
Edit, but yea I remember hardship. The banks weren’t always so great. There was 1 year so bad we had to resort back to the donkey and cart. Poor Neddie went to his bollix and the shafts level with the bank and the creels barely full 
prayers were said 
good times

We’ve all been there 
We all had the ubiquitous Neddie who probably hated it as much as me.

Did everyone have a donkey called Ned(dy)? My grandfather did as well. There was no point in getting too clever with the names I suppose. I hated the bog growing up as the midges ate me alive. I didn’t mind the work. Before they developed a real taste for my blood, I remember going home after a day up on top of the trailer and the mother introducing what became my favourite meal for years - bacon and cabbage.
