Hi everyone!

Today is perfect day to share with you the history of my town

For the last five years, I've been living in the small town of Killorglin.

This place has an unusual custom. Older people would say it's a pagan custom, people in this town worship a goat (Puck)
It starts 10th - 12th August

Puck Fair (Irish: Aonach an Phoic, meaning "Fair of the He-Goat", 'poc' being the Irish for a male goat) is one of Ireland's oldest fairs.
