Have your cake and eat it

WELL, it’s nothing if not entertaining.

At the last count, the past fortnight has provided GAA events as diverse as Parnellgate 2: the reckoning and the exclusion zone around Croke Park for parking.Our inner Einstein can’t help trying to draw such apparently unrelated events together in a kind of unified field theory of everything way – the brawl in Parnell Park a non-non-violent demonstration against the two-kilometre exclusion zone around Jones Road.

Probably a stretch, that one.
