Ask Audrey has been sorting out Cork people for years

Got an issue? Ask Audrey...

Alright? I was going to bring me chisellers down to Cork to see the lights this Christmas. I’ve heard yiz are a cliquish bunch down there. Do you reckon people will be friendly even though we have Dublin accents, wha? — Derek, Drumcondra

Don’t worry about a thing Derek. When you live as close to Kerry as we do, you get used to people with hilarious accents. You’ll love the Glow Festival on the Grand Parade. It’s full of traditional Cork fare like noodles and pulled-pork burgers. It’s even better now that the lights are turned on in the park. People queue for hours just to see Blackrock yummy mummies panic when their kids ask can they go to Hillbillys. “Next you’ll be asking to go on the bus!”, one of them roared last year, trying to force a bag of macadamia nuts into her five-year-old. It was better fun than the panto, wha?
