Ask Audrey: Socialising in Killarney is something you’d expect from a Norrie

Lorna posted Jessie Buckley’s photo with the caption ‘Never seen anyone looking like this in Killarney, even after two bottles of prosecco’.
Ask Audrey: Socialising in Killarney is something you’d expect from a Norrie

Ask Audrey has been sorting Cork people out for ages.

Hello, it’s Rosealeen here in Ballydesmond. I never make an effort going on a date with a local gowl from north Cork, because them lads would barely notice if you had a second nose. But didn’t I land myself a night out with a fella from Midleton this weekend and east Cork people have loads of money although you wouldn’t know it by looking at them. So off with me down to Cutz 4 Culchies for a hairdo this morning, and didn’t Margie herself greet me at the door to say, “Listen now Rosealeen, I don’t want any trouble, but I’ve had to put my prices up 15% due to pressures from suppliers.” Well didn’t I rear up at her and say, what suppliers Margie, sure you haven’t bought as much as a new curler since 1997? She never had much of a sense of humour and long story short, I’m barred for six months, which is a problem up here because you’d want to be as daft as Evil Knievel to get your hair cut in Scartaglin. I’ve decided to go into Cork city and get a fancy fringe for your man from Midleton – so like, what do people talk about in hairdressers above in Cork?
