I never cease to be amazed by the Irish love of horses. Every square meter of garden lawn has at least one. Every garage has one in preference to a car. Every roadside patch of weeds feeds a dozen.
Children use them as toys, adults bet their pay-packets on them, and they play a major role in the Irish economy.
such a longing, T. i have a gnawing desire to go walking in Ireland, greatly enhanced by your posting of your visits. i also take to heart your e.m. forster quote. thank you.

And they are beautiful. The Irish blood (well diluted) in me recognizes their beauty and yearns after them.
