Celtic Canto Extravaganza

A Nog, bored with being from Norway
Who wanted to be born in Galway
Bought dog collars green
From an Aussie colleen
And went to the St. Patrick’s ball, wei!

What kind of poem is this? That’s right, a limerick. And where do you find Limerick? In IRELAND! Yes, I have become Irish. How else could I justify buying St. Patrick-patterned dog collars for both my dogs, to be worn once a year?

Both my dogs are gingas so the colour combination is perfect. And I’ve joined St. Patrick’s Society as a lifetime member! And I’m going to the St. Patrick’s Ball on the 14th of March! La la la, fiddle me riverdance, sirrah! Irish it is.

Oh, and I have four Irish students learning cantonese now. They’re all sharp as tacks and funny, so I thought I’d get me some more of that. I believe the Society organises very good quiz nights.

The dog collars come from the Australian company Ciao Puppy and are handmade, durable and wonderful.
