The topic reminds me of an all-time favourite song “Ode to my Family” by the Cranberries
oh the Cranberries, an Irish gem! not familiar with this song. ill have to check it out.
This is a good theme to write about.
Congratulations @cleophas!
@cleophas you do not have an attached wallet. Can you send a lightning invoice of 9220 sats to claim your prize?
hello @unschooled! just roll the prize over into the next week's bounty please. I like how exciting it feels when the prize gets bigger.
