Hello old stock. Reggie Jnr came home yesterday morning with his Leaving Cert Results and without giving anything away about the hopeless thicko, I actually got more points on my Driving Licence. I did what any father would do in the circumstances and brought him down to the RCYC for a giant steak and seven gin and tonics.
It wasn’t long before he was in tears because of his results, or maybe the gin, but either way I said, ‘Chin up Reggie Jnr, UCC is just a dating agency for mountainy men from outside Clonmel’. You won’t be surprised to hear he’s a good looking boy, so I’m going to set him up with a Farmer’s Market Stall, selling gluten free cookies to hot housewives from the Douglas Road. Will he thrive, tell me? — Reggie, Blackrock.
