Trish, its not meant to be serious. Just a funny little mail I got today.

If we cant have a giggle at ourselves, then we shouldnt laugh at others either.

Give it a rest please, no need to start snipping at each other.

Kev: Its probably more suited towards Humour, but its an oldie and a goodie so I dont see the problem with having it here If there is widespread objection, I assume from the ballybeg folk, ill move it.

Back when £1.79 would have bought you a kebab, but not in the Istanbul kebab house, because it wasn't there 12 years ago!
