Lovely Hurling

Lovely Hurling is an expression around here said when something is going good. Hurling is a Gaelic team game played particularly in Ireland, although they do have teams around the world made up mainly from Irish immigrants. My son loves the game. The players have a long wooden stick thing called a hurl with which they whack a ball called a sliotar. I seem to spend my life driving him half way across the county getting to matches. Such is a mother's life.
