    It is a custom in the Co. Wexford that when a person goes in to a dairy he or she must say "God bless the work"...

    (continued from previous page)
    There were two men wan day walking along the road and there came a great whirlwind. Wan o' the men blessed himself and jumped out of the way and told the the other fellow to do the same. The other man said "what harm will it do you". "Oh" says the other "what harm will it do to bless yourself."
