Since the arrival of Ted, the journey from Dublin to Kerry has gone from being one I once secretly relished to a real test of endurance - and that’s just in relation to Baby Shark. Gone are the days when I am the captain of my own Yaris - I am now very much answering the command of a stringent albeit utterly adorable toddler taskmaster.
