This is an odd take fromthe ABCs in an old notebook of mine, what I could read, and my memory, what I could read... Both could be faulty, as could the original souce, as session in the Wicklow hills with all of us well oiled... I loved that pub's bottled Guiness because he used to let it sit for at least six months before opening it for a few of us who liked our Guiness warm and bottle aged... Mad eh?
