- I live in Moortown and there are fields all around our house.
One fine bright night, my man Laurence Cahill was coming home from his Céilidhe and he fund he could not find the pass to the house though he could see the light.
He knew he came on a "stray sod" so he took off his coat and found himself at the gate.
