“Check shirt wizard”?!

 

[flashback]

Some... nephew or something? of Rory Gallagher just got married there, and they had a fairly massive party roaming around East Cork.
They're all English at this point. And, as a local pointed out "rich pricks".
I asked if they were rich because of Rory? Thinking surely he didn't make all that much money. Seemingly he did and does.

Huh. That name came up too. I didn't know who they were talking about.

I don't know if there were Kitteringhams at the party or what. Everyone was at the party though. And it was a really well organized party. Like a passing sensible tornado, dropping into various music venues, ripping off a few cheesy songs, and jumping into the taxi motorcade for the next stop.

You'd never manage to herd Irish people as efficiently. Unless you had booze to tempt them back into the motorcade.
