Happy St. Patrick's Day!

[Ex-Call Centre Chimp]

A shillelagh is a wooden walking stick and club or cudgel, typically made from a stout knotty stick with a large knob at the top, that is associated with Ireland and Irish folklore.

Thanx. I was actually questioning the spelling.

Happy Saint Paddy's though. Hope you've all had a belter

Yeahbut,
Most ... 'visitors' cant pronounce/decipher Shillelagh, now can they?

Teach yerself an instant Irish accent;

repeat the following words, slowly at first, then repeat, until the penny drops.

Whale.
Oil.
Beef.
Hooked.
