Paudie Clifford chatted his way through the national anthem in Killarney, causing annoyance for a religious mother. The mother keeps large bottles of holy water inside the front door to throw over visitors' cars when they leave. Her reaction is framed as a protective or corrective response to visitors’ behavior. Her brother Proinnsias adds a practical remark about quickly winding the windows up. The account uses humor and exaggeration to describe the mother’s strong reaction and the family’s coping advice.
