» It was a great holiday, but...

havent been back since
this was around about 1988-1990 i was 5 at the time but me and my family flew out to northen ireland because my old man wanted to see an old school friend . now norhtern ireland as you all most know has had a bit of trouble with the IRA back then (it still does now)
but never the less we when to see dads friend ann . i was left with ann's teenage son while mum , dad and ann when to the local pub . The pub was quite packed but had a great athmospher so iam told and ever one was haveing a laugh that is until ann , who was siting next to my dad both faceing the front door let out an god almighty scream .At the same time 4 big burly men burst in the door shouting , at that moment my dad shouted "oh my god its the fucking IRA get down " and then jumped under the table cowering.The whole pub when quite ant just stared at dad , the reason why ann let out a scream? ... a spider fell off an over head lamp shade and landed in anns cleveage , the four blokes were just comeing in for a pint. Arfter dad realised him , mum and ann werent going to get machine gunned the three made their exucsses and fled the pub.sorry for the length
