    It is a dump.

    I think you mentioned you liked hill walking ?

    Ireland is full of lovely places.
    Just depends what you want.

    I do like hill walking but just looking at a quick weekend break, so one of the cities would be better.

    I like me antiquities.:50:
    Was fortunate enough to have an Easter rising medal, boxed with written letter in my hands about 5 years ago. A girl was given it as a wedding gift and wanted me to value it. I refused to price it and explained the significance of the present.
    Girl said she would keep it. But I did tell her the box itself would be worth £300-400. Hard to come by them complete.

    Kilkenny.
    been a good few times. brilliant place to chill out.
    1st time me and missus went we stayed in a B+B which was a farm. 1st day there the owners told us they where going to a family wedding in Carlow and would be gone all day, so handed us the keys and told us to make ourselves at home.
    the owners auld dad wouldn't talk to us until he found out we where catholics then he wouldn't shut up. told me he'd been abroad once before.... stranraer, buying coo's.
    went to a pub on the outskirts and there was about 6 tractors parked outside, I got a pint of lager and the wife asked for a Cointreau, you could have heard a pin drop. went back to the same pub about 3yrs after and the same bottle of Cointreau was still on the gantry and the owner told us nobody had touched it since we where last there.
    * !!! just thinking about it makes me want to go back. haven't been in about 15yrs :90:

    The way I keep using the word 'absolutely' in place of 'very' or 'really'.

    Also, the mindfuck when I say 'toothbrushes' because my head is thinking plural so I want to hear 'teethbrushes' but it's obviously not and I almost always say it and think I'm wrong when I don't even though I'm right.

    The fact there's quite a number of transactions on my card from the weekend that I simply don't remember making.

    The occasional hungover * which feels pretty numb and isn't worth the effort.

    folk using the expression 'gone viral' (particularly media numpties)...

    to explain something on the internet being viewed by lots of people.

    ...............................

    Adverts for stuff that shouldn't exist!!!

    last night saw an ad for a spray to hide when you've done a smelly dump!
    thought it was a joke at first.

    Apparently Dave King uses it as a breath spray!
