Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)
I had a nice stroll along the Royal Canal today, it was not too cold and I enjoyed feeding a pair of Swans, they were very hungry and the stale half sliced pan I brought with me didn’t last long, still I was pleased I had done my good deed for the day.As I passed old Kerrigans field on the way back home I saw a herd of Cows joyfully nibbling the lush green grass, they looked so contented and were all singing “Amazing Grazing”
I know nothing about equations but there is a plaque on Broombridge with this on it, I took a snap of it for Pug and Fruitcake they know all about this stuff.

The eldest grandson bought a pair of shoes today, they cost him a bomb in one of Dublin’s most fashionable shops in posh Grafton Street called Brown Thomas, the lad is mad about brand names, although I was very particular what I wore when I was 18, think I had an expensive pair of winkle pickers back then, cost me a weeks wages.
It reminded me of an old Dublin joke from the 60’s that went.
“What has Muhammad Ali and Grafton street got in common?”
“They both have Brown Thomas’s”
Needless to say he didn’t know what I was talking about, two generations out.
