So the Scottish Sidhe must be non-irritable even as the Irish Sidhe remain irritable no matter what!

Why would there be such a difference between the two supernatural populations? Would Irish and Scottish mythologies have any reasons given?

Brandy, coffee and tea necessitate some kind of containerization or packaging.

Might buyers of smuggled goods immediately have changed containers and packaging perhaps lacking import-duty-paid stamps (if such a thing prevailed)? Might they have burned the guilty containers and packaging?

(Unitedstatesians nowadays perhaps would litter such containers and packaging in some business's or someone's trash bins or yards or in some water body's waters!)

The opening poetry is effective as is even as it undoubtedly welcomes additions, elaborations, expansions, extensions and supplements by its illustrious author.

That's a rather chilling, unsettling story about the redcoat hearing about where his death was "scheduled" through a dead relative.

The military service might have kept him from doing everything he could to avoid Ticonderoga!

(But what would have happened had he succeeded? Would it even be possible to avoid a death date once advised by someone on "the other side"?)

But in between the two isn't there supposed to be something for readers to learn?

Might it be that animals, like people, begin life with a childlike innocence? Komar Zz misinterprets human movement as friendly instead of unfriendly. He misinterprets his bite as friendly instead of unfriendly.

Might one of the lessons that we must learn as we mature be how people have bad and good within them?

Mary isvassociated with blue, but also she can be represented with many colours.

Our problem is less mosquitos, but more midges, which beset visitors to the Scooish highlands in damp weather.

The Irish Sidhe are said to be irritable, unlike the Scottish Sidhe

Itnis an annual , I believe.

There are many ghost stories which tell of people having a premonitory vision? There is one inn which a red coat going to America saw a dead relative who told him that they would meet at Ticonderoga. They did
