One song I love is called Slay The Nazarrine - they have the full intro with a speech they got off some film.

Mark, I used to live across the street from them. But I don't know them very well. My parents/grandparents know them very well. I'm not one of the nosy neighbour posse, so I tend not to interfere too much with neighbours.

Actually since I've moved in to Knocknacarra (9 months ago), I haven't bothered to speak to anyone in the estate. I couldn't be bothered. They don't interfere with me, I don't use my decks at night.

But as far as I know, you stumbled across some very nice (and may I say wealthy) people. The most puzzling part of it all, is how the fúck did you manage to get in to that house without them calling the cops

Was going out with the daughter for a while and since her parents were away and she frequented the Oasis, parties were plentiful. Being the hostesses fella, we got first choice of bedrooms, hope none of her m8s are on here, could be a bit funny

I would have lived right beside your parents homes. I lived on Dr. Mannix Rd (adjacent to Dalysfort), then the Maples (beside Devon park/gardens). I grew up in that part of Salthill, so I know the area very well, and most of my friends still live there.

I was just starting a trend!!!

Salthills grand, plenty of nites watching the footie in Davys locker so I cannot complain!!

Actually to be honest I am sick of Knocknacarr, the place is grand, just waaaaaayyy too many houses been fired up, no green spaces, no parks, you know what I mean if you live there.

Went from TirEllen Heights to Renmore out to the edge of the sticks in Castlgar. Live within walking distance of two pubs. Haven't been near Salthill since the airshow in 1998 (I think), been in Knocknacarra twice. The only reason I ever cross the river is to find a computer lab.....
