C’mere, what’s the story with liking someone from Dublin? Myself and the old doll are in Benalmadena and we’ve made drinking buddies with this couple from Clondalkin. The lad, Johnny, do be fierce sound, he’d remind you of Robbie Keane but without the fit wife. (That’s the way he described himself, in front of her, before you accuse me of anything now like.) If you look beyond the howyiz and blue tracksuits, they could actually pass for Cork Norries (they even brought her Mam with them on holidays.) So, do you think we should stay in touch back in Ireland?
