belfast /







l// safely home from our adventures in Northern Ireland with bellies full of fifteen, (a lovely sweet treat with fifteen ingredients) heads full of new knowledge, (to do with the conflict between English Irish (Protestants) and Irish English (Catholics)), and legs full of scabs (fell over at the giants causeway and ripped my knee open). The only thing I would change would be to have had a belly full of fourteens.... does anybody like glazed cherries?!!!

m// ...to brighten the day.
