Dear Dad:
With the anchor dropped and the boat at a standstill, I am in
this green Ireland of your ancestors.

When they found out, the [Irish] television came to ask me about the
Lynch genealogy, but in case they were horse thieves or something
like that I didn't say much.

Happy holidays,

We're waiting for you

Yeah, I agree completly. I'm not just fawning on him or idolising him, but he was actually really funny sometimes

Now for my family secret to come out.
Our skeleton in the cupboard.
My grandfather got caught stealing the Bishop of Monaghan's silver.
Oh. The shame, Oh. The hilarity.
I dont really want to go futher back who knows what is hidden there.

Have you been to Rob Roy Glacier? Some of the pictures on the above site are stunning.

No I haven't, I'm in the north island. My sister lives down that way but so when I visit her I'll check it out.
