		In Spiddal there is something illicit about cooking a huge dinner for the one who arrives with more plants and news from the city all of 12 miles away.
		Spiddal was not yet in the frame, it was still in that out-there place, the place without roads or birds and little or no links to my imagination.
		Another thing about Spiddal is, I like to overhear children speak Irish to their parents on the street and in the supermarket.
