bogger.Cavan - behave!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
are you going for the messagesMy husband is Irish. When we first met I found so many things confusing. Why was he doing his 'messages' when was he was shopping? Why was his dressing gown a 'house coat'? And his welly boots are water boots? Why is the airing cupboard a hot press? Most confusingly why does he have a slice of bread and butter with every. single. meal?
There's a tesco by me that stocks Mint Crisp (£1 a pop), and during the first week of lockdown I randomly found Club Orange stocked in my (small) local tesco. Couldn't get bread or milk but stocked up on club orange.Cadbury mint crisp, is it true you can’t buy that anywhere but Ireland?!
fruit shortcake biscuits?
The jelly star biscuit in the afternoon tea

My aunt has lived in London for about 35 years and when she was home recently was looking through our local newspaper. There was an appeal for witnesses as some windows had been smashed. She was gobsmacked. She was like "jesus you could get murdered in London and nobody bat an eyelid but a broken window makes the paper here"I still listen to Radio Kerry whilst I am at work in Birmingham UK, my partner works with me and he couldn't believe there was a 'death notice' section of the show and that at Christmas time someone phoned in to advise they found a wallet on the street and could the owner call in and claim it
Anyone go on a family holiday to Bundoran (Fundoran)? cheap as chips in a mobile home for a week nearly killing your siblings and heading off to the casinos in the evening
[/QUOTE]I was born in England but raised in Ireland so im English in a lot of ways but know the sayings and they crack me up-my husband is Irish Irish and he's always about doing the delph, and the glass of milk with the meal too, no matter what. And a glass of 'mineral' too

Talking of tv ads remember the one during the troubles "cats in the cradle". Me and my cousin showed it to her English husband and he was gobsmacked it was on the telly for kids to see. My dad wasn't one to go to the pub so 7 yr old me thought going to the pub meant your daddy either was at risk of getting shot or was going to do the shooting after that adDoes anyone remember the advert on TV for farmers and their cows? S.O.S. - STAMP OUT SCOUR!
(this was for cows that had a fierce dose of the runs!).

I know one of the guys that carried out that attack ,his mum lives 1 minute from me ! he was best friends with my friends brothers he practically lived in their house we all hung around together .We couldn't get our heads round he'd do something like that..My friend’s Dad was actually shot dead in The Rising Sun massacre so unfortunately as much as it was just an ad on TV to me at the time it did actually happen
