Have you ever kissed the Blarney stone as a child? |
But can't do it now? It's funny how you say that. I done lots of things as a child that I no longer can do and that is one of them. lol I could do with kissing something so maybe I shall go and visit the Blarney stone one of these days. Always meant to go. No, I have not but would like to. Children have no fear! Yes and ever since then People keep telling me to stop talking? Seriously I have kissed the blarney stone and it was a great experience to have been part of a tradition that has been going on for many many years :) When i lived in cork as a child i was brought on a school trip to the blanery stone when i was small. That will sadly be my first and last tome on me doing that. I also have a fear of heights. No. However, I am from across the pond. But it is on my to-do list of things to do before my death as well as getting "smashed" with the locals. :) my dad was from Cork and we used to go to Ireland for our summer holidays ever year and stay on my uncles farm....lovely memories! anyhoot, i kissed the Blarney stone when i was little and doubt very much i could do now....i have to say though, its definately given me the gift of the gab! i remember another year we went to see the moving statue of Mary....havent been back to Ireland for years but your question has brought back some lovely memories....have a star for cheering me up! x My mother kissed it when she was pregnant with me - she didn't know she was pregnant at the time. Go figure. I did it at the age of 24! I'm a bit afraid of heights too but it was fine. There are so many people up there that I really don't think there's any danger (unless someone decides to push you down!) I've kissed it twice as an adult, but never as a child. I wouldn't dream of bringing my children up there and depend on someone else to hold them out over the edge like that. |
