A teacher asks her class to use the word "contagious".

Roland the teacher's pet, gets up and says, "Last year I got the measles and my mum said it was contagious."

"Well done, Roland," says the teacher. "Can anyone else try?"

Katie, a sweet little girl with pigtails, says, "My grandma says there's a bug going round, and it's contagious."

"Well done, Katie," says the teacher "Anyone else?"

Little Irish Sean jumps up and says in a broad Dublin accent, "Our next door neighbour is painting his house with a 2 inch brush, and my dad says it will take the contagious”.

What colour was he painting the house ?

Or perhaps he was going to do one of those pictures of Bobby Sands on the side of his house, in which case he probably didn't want one of those really big brushes. Only Rolf Harris can make pictures look any good with a big brush.

In Dublin? The only people who'd be in any way interested in painting murals of Bobby Sands here don't have a house to paint them on - theres very little wall area on a Ballymun flat...

True but there might be more space on the walls and fences around Darndale

It didn't say the house was in Dublin, just that Little Irish Sean had a broad Dublin accent. The house might have been in Buxted or Lye Green or anywhere.

Maybe his parents had had to leave the Dublin area because his father had been made redundant or maybe an older brother had got in with the wrong crowd and had started taking drugs. It would have been very difficult for them if the latter was the case and I only hope that as a family they all pull through.

Quite right. Let's all spare a thought for poor little Sean and his family. They are going through a pretty rough time of it at the moment.

Is this the same little Sean who baled little Johnny out when his teacher asked him to name a King of England, to which Johnny said "Dick the shit", much to the teacher's horror. Immediately helping his friend, Sean replied "Oi tink he means Richard de turd"?
