in adults and then when you reach the adults because the kids the kids are brilliant there's a couple of things about kids like I mean kids are naturally curious all of them and they're naturally into nature

They are.

They all are.

Some of them are naturally afraid of it, but into it at the same time.

But we were digging a pond for the Trinity Access Program.

I went to school in Drimna.

And we were digging a pond.

And these were 50-year kids.

And as we were digging it, I was getting them excited about, we're going to put the tadpoles in.

We're going to put in native plants and explain it all to them.

And next minute, they all jumped back and said, what the fuck is that?

And it was an earthworm.

And I said, it's a worm.

And they went, it's not real.

And I'm like, yeah, it's an earthworm.

Have you never tried to pick it up?

So the pond was dug and it was gorgeous and all that.

But there's more photographs of the kids holding an earthworm.

And I actually was talking to the teacher afterwards and she was saying, I said, I thought you were taking the mickey out of me.

You know what I mean?
