I know I’ve just jinxed myself now but three out of the four throw out either black or brown Swiss coloured calves.

The basic version is free! edit FYI: only three flights over us at the moment: EI9018 Dublin to Peking just part Howth on it's way to collect PPE, QR8150 Atlanta to Bogata - Qator cargo and VOR9 which is probably the Garda plane flying along the course of the M50. There would normally be dozens over Ireland!

People walking on the road could be looking at you in through the windows eating your dinner. I've land taken where there are ruins of dwelling houses on a lane and same thing the walls right on the edge of the lane. I guess every inch of land was needed times back for farmland and you weren't going to waste it between a house and a road.
