The German girl who is staying with me confirmed the statement of 26th March that it is posh in Germany to have a middle name. She is not posh.
Instead I approach a man sitting by the window of the pub with neatly cropped grey hair and a tanned face. On his knee sits a small and similarly well-groomed dog. 'I've not heard that one before', he says smiling to my request. His companion has spiky hair and a brightly-coloured t-shirt. The dog takes an interest. 'Are you Irish?' I ask on being given an answer. 'Couldn't be more so', he replies. The dog is called Tayto.
