- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)All sat round the table.
Meat chiefly bacon was used only at Xmas and Easter. In Lent the festing was very strict. No meat was used from Ash Wednesday until Easter Sunday.
- Plenty of eggs were eaten on Easter Sunday. A man named Jack Darcy, well known in the neighbourhood used to eat 21 eggs at breakfast on Easter Sunday.
Mugs were used before cups came into use.
Eggs were distributed lavishly by those who had them to such as had not and that custom has survived yet.
The poorer class youngsters and travelling folk also call at the houses asking for a "clúdác" which consists of any kind of alms, clothes, food, eggs, etc.
The sun is supposed to dance or cut some sort of capers in the sky on Easter Sunday morning in honour of the Resurection. I remember as a child getting up to see it but I cannot recall having seen anything unusual.
