well, it's not really free is it?  Somebody's paying for it.  Anyway, old grudges are the best grudges.  And that music is awful.  Sounds like frogs and wolves competing to be heard in a marsh.  Do you listen to that twangy stuff often?

I think that's Uillean pipes you're referring to.

But the grudge I found funny was not that against the fascist government he (or someone in his family) was striking against one-score-and-twelve years or so ago, but that against the people from the next county over who wouldn't join the politically motivated strike.

ha!  That's even better.  I've googled it since your response and now I understand the reference to Notts scabs.  Okay, I want to change my vote to "Oh, wow!"
