... although I wouldn't want to paint it.
A couple of weeks ago I met a new arrival to our area, an Irishman. A few days later I introduced him to an English friend and left them talking as the English man was keen to talk about his Irish heritage.
It transpired that the MiL of the Irishman's sister was the English man's aunt, ie his mother's sister, and she still lived in house where the English man's mother was raised. He and his aunt are back in touch after several decades as a result.
