Guten Tag. I was flying into Cork Airport last night, approaching from the north. About two minutes before touchdown the whole cabin filled with the most incredible light. Do you think this might have been the lamb of God? — Klaus, Hamburg

No, that would have been Jerry’s house in Blarney. He likes to light it up for the Christmas. You’re pretty lucky really. Three planes landed on Jerry’s drive last week because they thought it was a runway. He was straight out trying to sell them duty free cigarettes and booze. They’re always on the lookout for some extra cash above in Blarney. If you’re interested, there’s a bus that does a tour of all the lit-up houses around Cork this time of year. It’s full of people from Douglas and Sunday’s Well saying, “I’ve never seen anything so common in all my life.”
