Great stuff, jags, there'll be lots of the talk and the craic, of that I'm sure. Meath, eh? When I hear that name, this is what comes to mind:
"There were lads from Galway, and Firth, and Meath,
Who went to their death with a joke in their teeth,
And worshipped with fluency, fervour and zeal,
The mud on the boot-heels of 'Crook' O'Neill." [That would be Captain O'Neill of the Black Tyrone - JS.]
But in early March I'll be doing some cross-country skiing here, I hope -- & just back from our upcoming visit to the great land down unda, to see our kids & grand-daughters (now 2 of them!!). If you can ask the organizers to reschedule for May or June another year, it would be my great pleasure to visit the Holy Ground once more.
