What about the Brehon Laws which for almost three thousand years (until finally destroyed by the English) were the most civilised and fair in the whole of Europe? Read your history and weep for what is gone.

Nothing racist about my previous remark, I was just referring to some beings that appeared on my doorstep last night out of a crack leading to the underworld. Whether they were Celts or not I have no way of knowing, though as they didnt have freckles and red hair they probably weren't American Hollywood Celts.
