Michael Harding's column in today's Irish Times is about priests and his memories of them.
His recollections are sparked off by meeting a man whom he thought was carrying a prayer book.
Michael Harding goes on to explain that the man is actually carrying a ledger and is reading ESB Network meters and then entering them into the ledger.
Is the body of Michael Harding's column as inaccurate as his 'ledger story'?
ESB Networks meter readers these days enter readings on a handheld digital device. It is a long time since ESB meter readers used paper and pencil to log readings.
The story of a fabulist.
