  1. Hail! Hailman! the celts are here! Last night I was walking home and there was a huge ring around the moon plus a few clouds but it was quite a bright moon and the following day the weather was the hotter than any day this month.Well well how do you explain that hailman? Does this lore only apply to Ireland? (btw I live in Madrid)
