And then, turning her head in that swift movement that always reminded him of a jackdaw: 'By the way, Bobby, will you drive me up to Lough Derg next week?' He replied amiably from the lazy deeps of her armchair. ‘Certainly! What part? Killaloe? But is there a good hotel there?’ ‘I mean the other Lough Derg. I want to do the pilgrimage.’ For a second he looked at her in surprise and then burst into laughter; then he looked at her peeringly. ‘Jenny! Are you serious?’ ‘Of course.’ ‘Do you mean that place with the island where they go around on their bare feet on sharp stones, and starve for days, and sit up all night ologroaning and ologoaning?’ He got out of the chair, went over to the cigarette box on the bookshelves, and, with his back to her, said coldy, ‘Are you going religious on me?’ She walked over to him swiftly, turned him about, smiled her smile that was whiter than the whites of her eyes, and lowered her head appealingly on one side. When this produced no effect she said: ‘Bobby! I’m always praising you to my friends as a man who takes things as they come. So few men do. Never looking beyond the day. Doing things on the spur of the moment. It’s why I like you so much. Other men are always weighing up, and considering and arguing. I’ve built you up as a sort of magnificent, wild, brainless tomcat. Are you going to let me down now? After a while he had looked at his watch and said: ‘All right, then. I’ll try and fix up a few days free next week. I must drop into the hospital now. But I warn you, Jenny, I’ve noticed this Holy Joe streak in you before. You’ll do it once too often.’…” Original Format The type of object, such as painting, sculpture, paper, photo, and additional data Short stories Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
