Actually Cork is excellent. I lived there for a bit. On an island next to the one Jeremy Irons bought, near Cape Clear.

Probably the place where I want to die (as an old man)

As long as those idiot Murphys stay away from me.

Jeremy Irons used to come over and have pints at the local, The Jolly Rodger. No pubs on his Island. He was alright, that Jeremy. He bought us starving kids pints one night. And sang songs with us.
He drew the line at joining in with our Velocoraptor impressions though. We felt we looked quite fierce, but if you were picky you might think we looked like drunk kids with gimpy arms and an awkward gait.

Aw Philip. I can see now why grandmother emigrated. But why the hell did she go back

I've done a little bit of research into my family name.

Descended from Norman nobility apparently

Who was the **** that mentioned Adam Ant, have had "Stand And Deliver" running through my head all night at work, and I hate the song at the best of times

sorry for the derail

That would be Razor.
Razor is just wizard at wrecking everyone's buzz.
She doesn't even know where Cork is, and she was there. South East. Pfft. South West darling.
South *west*.
