    snow drops, cow slips and many others. Then we get another flower and hole it with the nails of our fingers and put another flower into it until we girdle them into a chain. We also amuse ourselves in spare times in Winter nights by listening to my father telling stories or to a neighbour by the name of Luke Duffy who is great for stories. Sometimes we play the gramophone. When a few people and my cousins are in we dance.
