------------------------------------------------------
Some notes on Ireland, don't ever go back, because if you left the
tap on in the cellar you flooded the bar, also the R. S. P. C. A.
are looking for you because the goat could not get free it died,
also you still owe the boy his crisps and lastly and most important
the pub still has no beer and there is a price on your head ....
