Ask Audrey has been sorting out Cork people for years

How’re oo goin’ on? I booked one of those new flights from Cork to New York, through Iceland. This was before your man Trump got into the White House. Do you think a foreigner will be safe there now? — Ger Jer Jerry, turn left at Ballyvourney and try not to make eye contact with the locals

You’ll be grand. Trump doesn’t seem to have anything against slack-jawed bogmen. Mainly because 90 million of them voted for him. As for being mistaken for a Mexican or Muslim, I’d say you’re safe on both counts, Ger Jer Jerry. With the economy tanking after the election, my guess is the New Yorkers will welcome you with open arms. Until you get within three paces and they shout: “Good god man, when was the last time you took a shower?” Don’t say: “What’s a shower?” You don’t want them thinking you’re from Kenmare.
