Far away to the north, the Ulster warriors at Emainn Macha are assembling to repulse the invaders. “Howyas” said the Ulster king “are yis looking forward to kicking the Connaught men back across the Shannon?”. But the Ulster men were uncharacteristically silent #TainOnTwitter
“What’s wrong boys?” Asks the king. “A pain” said one, “cramps” said another. “More like a gripe” added another, “tenderness” said someone else. “Misery” “no, more like a twinge”, “mine feels like a pang”, “Yes, a pang” agreed several others #TainOnTwitter
Cattle Raid of Cooley: episode 16. Cuchulainn has returned from Meath and madness and is now back among his Ulster friends. “Howyas”, “Howya, Cuchulainn - we are just trying the apple-feat and other nimble fighting techniques, will you join us?” #TainOnTwitter
Cuchulainn was a apple-feat genius and when the Ulster WaGs saw him performing it they were mighty impressed; “we’ve never seen such a romantic and risqué apple-feat before” they said. The Ulster husbands were very unimpressed “hmmmmmmh” they sulked #TainOnTwitter
The Ulster husbands hald a meeting. “I’m doing apple-feats for years and the wife never compliments me” moaned a husband . “Cuchulainn does one and everyone thinks he’s a hero” agreed another. “We need to get him a wife”. “Secretary, put that in the minutes”. #TainOnTwitter
