Michael .. if my memory is working .. the Leprechaun had just finished burying his crock of gold beneath a fruit tree in an Orchard. Dave came along, following a rainbow, and catching sight of the little bastard, grabbed him by the throat and started squeezing, refusing to let go, until the little feller had pointed out the exact tree.
Dave booted him up the arse, and sent him on his way after extracting a promise not to dig up the crock. Leprechauns are evil little pricks
but by the second law of crystallised thought they are unable to break promises.
Dave tied a red ribbon around the tree and hurried off in uniform motion to get his spade. Imagine his horror when he returned to find a red ribbon tied around every tree !!
Ever since then, Dave has very little time for fairy tales, crystallised or not
I wouldn't be surprised if some moderator removes this crock to the many worlds pub ... where even Leprechauns can have a beer..
The best of the blarney to both of you
