The thing about writers is that we actually enjoy discussing the nuanced meanings of words. Yup, this is supposed to be fun.

Did you get a secret Valentine's Card this year?
I didn't, but in this weeks #WordSmith column I write about the only anonymous Valentine I ever received.
I’ve only ever received one Valentine’s Card in my life – in my #WordSmith column in tomorrow's The Anglo Celt, I tell you the story of a lucky escape…😩
"The street we lived on was ‘mostly’ Irish; yet it was often like a simmering pot of spud soup, which would occasionally boil over, causing fights between English and Irish lads – we lived in troublesome times."
This week's #WordSmith column is online.

Happy Valentine’s Day❤️
In next week’s #WordSmith column in The Anglo Celt I write about the only Valentine’s Card I ever received – it’s a somewhat ‘alternative’ Valentine’s story…😱

Tomorrow's #WordSmith column...
Following on from last week's #WordSmith column wherein I wrote about being Irish with an English accent; here's another with a focus on the Anglo/Irish experience – who remembers the summer boat journey from England to Ireland to spend school holidays with our Irish relatives?
