A man called Andrew moved from Cork to Dublin to open a flower shop. …
….
….
He was quite successful and through great marketing, quality product, and reasonable prices, Andrew’s Flowers became the top garden shop in all Dublin. Some monks that had a stall set up nearby took notice and, since attendance at the local parish (and the accompanying tithing revenue) was way down, they decided to grow and sell their own flowers. Since they grew all their own produce, the monks were able to undercut Andrew at every turn and within 3 months, the monks had stolen nearly all his business. Afraid, running out of money, and growing desperate, Andrew hired local hard man Hugh McTaggart to go to the monks’ stall under cover of darkness and destroy it. Then he was to go to their garden and use an herbicide on every bloom and blossom.
That night, Hugh did his dark deeds. It proved effective. Devastated, the monks were unable to return to their previous dомinатiоn of the market.
Andrew’s Flowers was, once again, supreme, proving once and for all that Hugh and only Hugh can prevent florist friars.
