Do you, or would you, bring your kid to a wake? I was talking to someone about this today. I think that it is really healthy for kids to see death as a part of life, to see a dead body etc, but the other person was horrified at the thought that her smallie would see a corpse. What say ye?

Given that the series finale is fast approaching, who will end up as king of the ashes?

Just cos FB is full of back to school photos! Do any of ye have a clear memory of starting school? I don't, but my mam taught me and I had been to the school with her before starting anyway so it wasn't a new environment for me. There are also no photos of it, nor for any of my siblings...

Not sure if anyone even checks this forum anymore but anyway, we are heading to Sligo for a weekend shortly. What's worth doing in that part of the world? Will have 2 four olds with us, so no long hikes and precious little culture will be possible! We will head to Glencar waterfall and to...
