My LifeJournal: Keeping it in the Family

While all this was going on,
Fleur and Jean were being plied with drink.
Every time Fleur said no,
she was badgered into drinking more.

"Ah, go on, Flower, get that into you.
Sure you'd die of thirst."

Jean's wine was grabbed from his hand
and a whiskey put in its place.

"Have a taste of that, John," Tadhg said.


HAHAHA.

Hilarious.
Her parents are Irish.
His parents are somewhat french.
But her parents called them Flower and John!
Instead of 'Fluh-r' though it means flower,
and 'Zhahn'!

My new favourite author, Sinead Moriarty.
And I found 3 other of her works at the Lib!

"But my mother put the skids on after three children.
I've one older sister, Siobhan and a younger brother, Finn"
"Middle Child!"
"Yes."
"Don't they tend to be chippy and resentful because
they have an undefined place in the family?"

And I totally second that statement.
Afterall, I am the middle child.
