The real men and women of Ireland struggling to grow food under extremely ardous circumstances in all weathers, so that pampered city dwellers can pop to their local foreign store in their car and eat.

So your growing food for a living and then getting pissed off that Dubs are buying it ??

Clean air only polluted by Dub's in their civics and glanzas rallying pissed during the small hours

Id bet that there are more boy racers per head of population in almost any town in Ireland then there are in Dublin, and also that drink driving is more widespread down the country. Also I reckon that yourselfs down the country have contributed to the aul pollution too

Getting stuck behind an old farmer using his 93 Corolla to herd the cattle, cause he can't be arsed to walk, for over half an hour.

Using the amount of cars outside a pub to judge how busy it is, when no one "should" be driving home anyway

Young ones "goin drivin" for hours on end cause there's feck all else to do.

Swerving every two seconds to avoid all the potholes in the roads

Meeting people who refuse to move in to the side of the road for fear they might scratch their paint, while you're almost in the side of the ditch.

In the countryside, even when you don't know what you're doing, you can be sure the rest of the village does!!

The local post office, where the nosey woman who works there has some sort of xray machine to read all the post coming through. I think she might even steam open some of them for a better look. I dont go in there anymore, i buy the stamps and put them in a different letterbox on the way home from work.

FYP

I Play Guitar What Have You Done

A old woman saying, "Be jay'sus, what is this piece of ****. It's blooming' dripping watery ****. And has two options No.1 and No.2 I certainly don't want to sip a sup of a watery No.2", to a coffee machine in a new, BIG, modern house. :rolleyes:

A father saying **** jokes.

Fields of green and muck.

A local pub with smokers outside and a fat bloke inside sitting on a spinning bar stool that he's to big for. (Usually a farmer talking to farmers about farming)

A lady they like to call Mary who is from Tipperary and a set of husbands named Mickey (DEAD), Johnny (DIVORCED), Paddy (AWAITING DEATH) with a dead father called Tommy.


A cemetery with broken headstones and an occasional old man who goes in to morn a lady dead for 10+ years.:(

A butcher, butchering a cow from the fields of green and muck, that the fat farmer in the pub gave to the butcher, that Mary of Tipperary purchases to cook for her husband Paddy which see will kill later and may I point out see also killed her father as he made **** jokes. Then she will gossip on the phone with the old lady who thought the coffee machine was a **** and Urine dispenser in the new, BIG, modern house. Five years later she marries man who mourns the loss of his dead wife at the cemetery. She says in hear vows,
"Harry, you are far better than does **** heads I married before you" see says that see will "NEVER HARM HIM" (Unlikely). Two weeks after the fat farmer dies of a heart attack. At the funeral Harry (Mary's new husband) says in tears, "God who will you take next", Mary replies quietly, "YOU".

Yeah, but thats mainly because there are more cars per head of population in the country because Dublin Bus doesn't run past here.
