He was a man who used always be "blowin' his own trumpet", and always coming out on top himself. He used to tell great tales of his travels and his adventures. When he was an ould man all the young fellas of the locality used to come into his house in the night time for to listen to his wonderful tales. They all used know of course that he was telling nothing only the height of lies but at the same time they would listen to him for he had a way of telling them that kept all the company amused.
