The ultra-rare egg was discovered at a farm in Devon (Picture: SWNS) ‘I put the eggs on a conveyor belt and they then get dropped into trays. ‘And this one just wouldn’t go through into the trays because it was the wrong shape. ‘I took it out and showed it to Andrew, the boss.

Thanks to the hard graft of Irish migrants, Paddy’s Day is celebrated all over the world in 2025. From Sydney to Santiago, Dublin to Dubai, and Tokyo to Toronto, you’re bound to found some craic.

Some of our most beloved slang and terminology has roots in the Irish language, known to its speakers as Gaeilge From the nickname of the Conservative Party to our slang for having fun, and one of Britain’s favourite drinks, many have a surprising origin on the island of Ireland. Craic ‘What’s the craic’, you might ask your friends as an alternative to ‘what’s the story’ or ‘what’s happening’ when you meet them for a couple of pints down the pub.
