This woman's life: When a pizza is harder to find than a rare Pokemon

A RARE BEAST: The Pokemon Mamoswine. The Prom in Salthill, Galway, is perfect for a spot of Pokemon hunting

So, we are on the prom in Salthill. The three grandchildren and myself. The nine-month-old twins are in the double buggy babbling and spitting. They are called after two Irish saints, Axel and Cooper. Their cousin, my other grandson, Oisin, is seven and like most seven-year-olds he likes to ask a lot of questions.
