Didn't anticipate that the most difficult aspect of finally being able to drive would be the daily struggle to stop myself buying a "HOW'S YOUR MOTHER FOR TURF" car window sticker

I was staying with a group in a holiday home near Carlingford once, & when we were out at the cars, a fella driving past slammed on the brakes to stop at the gate & shouted in at us "Are ye alright for spuds?" 🥔
We were in a holiday hse in Galway & in the local pub, a man offered us turf, he dropped it by & came in for a cuppa, after he left the manager came hurtling in & demanded to know what he was doing there - we had wandered blithely into a decades old feud, nearly got kicked out of the place 😆 drama!
It was hilarious, some old family drama, the turf man just dropped it in when he was putting his cap back on, with a wink as he left 'ha, yer wan will be bullin I was in here'
We laughed & then she was in before we had the milk put away, 'did we know him, why was he here, will he be coming again'
Lol no but he was just as comically, picturesquly, stereotypical - capeen, aran jumper, wellies.
He insisted on coming in for tea, we were a bit bewildered tbh, just getting away from Dublin for a few, cheap offseason days, bed, books, wine kinda thing
Long time ago now but we still laugh about it
