We have a mate called Eh...Melly

He is now synonomous with a state of drunkeness associated with the old Irish village drunk that some how eventually finds his way home very night but not after doing 2 round trip journeys on a nite link before waking on the wrong end and having to get a taxi, being found asleep on a window cill of a house in the wrong direction of home and falling asleep at the helm of a boat keeled over with his head supporting his body on the deck.

Mellied !!

Do many people know the origin of the word 'Balooba's??

Myself and my brothers used it in front of my Uncle in the pub before, he got a bit (very)upset (to say the least) and offended.

The word derives from the African tribe the Baloobas who were involved with clashes with Irish UN Peace Keeping troops in the Congo in the late 20th century.

It can't of being well documented, my dad (a couple of years younger) hadn't heard of it.

The Baloobas tribe were known for being a bit... mad in the head.

Still, I think it's a fantastic word, wonderfully descriptive of a drunken state!
