What's in My Lunch Box Returns

By the time we'd trudged through all that bog, our stomachs were rumbling and we were ready for lunch. As we searched for a dry place to park our bottoms, we contemplated what would be in today's lunch box. As our minders had packed lunch for us all, it was going to be a surprise.

Our lunch spot was in a pleasant forest clearing and we had sat down by a bridge over a stream to eat.


When the lunch box was opened, we initially weren't quite sure what was in it. Whatever was in it were big, which was a good sign for hungry bears, and they were very pale and interesting. As we took the food out the sandwich bag we realised we had some form of bread in our paws. We then learnt that we were about to try some authentic Irish food, as these were soda farls.

Talking to Patrick when we got back, he explained that farl is the name for the triangular shape which represents a quarter of the round and flat Irish soda bread loaf. Our farls were filled with ham and tomato and they were very tasty and filling. We hardly had room for our pudding of Tunnock's tea cake (rather squashed) but needless to say we managed it.

After that, it was a pleasant but uneventful walk back to the car.

Lots of love, George & Yorkie xxx
