Glued to #traitorsireland. So the most outstanding things are - well besides the sublime Siobhan McSweeney - are the WOLFHOUNDS & everyone saying they want the 50k for a deposit on a house.

I think it’s livestock rather than poo that’s the issue. But I agree with you that it seems a little off not to even allow them in lead. We spend a lot of time in Sheep’s Head & it’s a pity that we can’t only walk dog on roads.
