  1. Folklore
    Games I play
    The games I play are Blinds Man Bluff, catching "Hide and Seek" four corner fool and story telling by the fireside.
    I amuse myself playing those games. I also go gathering blackberries and nutcracking in autumn,
    I also play hurling during the year and I amuse myself by sitting by sitting at the fireside telling stories in winter time.
