For the five years that; "Ballykissangel" was on air me and my entire family had no choice other than to answer;

"The fictional part."

So I'm currently experiencing what a G.P or Air Traffic Controller would probably describe as; "Decision Fatigue."

In a nice twist though. While I didn't notice until they were delivered, my choice being driven more by price and availability, my new work boots also have Irish DNA. Where they seem to know a thing or two about long, wet grass and bogs.
