- Wish I could attend this as it sounds fantastic
- Oh look Barnabe Rich is at it again- this time with eels. He's the reason my book on Irish beer history is called Filthy Queens after his diatribe against the alewives on Dublin. This is also from his 1610 incredibly bigoted work 'New Description of Ireland' @greenleejw.bsky.social talks about here.
