Boxing Day!


A remarkable 96 years or so after partition - minds and souls.
Draperstown will have to travel further on the day.

It's for shooting!
And the wren.

I was thinking about that other day, not seen wren boys in years. There was a couple of kids dressed up going around local pubs a couple of years back but they were accompanied by dubious sorts who were just trying to make a quick quid..

On St. Stephen's Day the Armagh Rhymers do a good impersonation of Wren Boys 😇

Herself and myself have always found that it's good if we get out of the house a couple of times - a week nice meal, a couple of drinks, maybe a show or a dance. I usually go on Tuesdays and Thursdays and she goes Wednesdays and Fridays.

St Stephens day involves a fair bit of punting, between horses and football probably lose a fortune but sure its Christmas, and a few scoops!!

It's a great day for a walk by the sea.

Working Christmas week is a terrible affliction.

Seeing the Royal family make their way to church or enjoy country pursuits is as much part of a very British Christmas as Love actually, quality street or calling the 26th Boxing day .
