dave 27

On a remote island no-one can hear your crap pretentious music. I see a film in the works.

Scarlett Johansson is hot but the film was sh*te.

That Scottish lad didn't show off his mickey like he normally does though, so that's a plus.

Get the 06 census abstract from your library, it will list individual islands, with some summary stats. If you cant find it online.

Anything else? A cup of tea? A back-rub? A sandwich?

I was on Inisheer (one of the Arran Islands) last week. Lovely spot... it has the shipwreck on it that you see at the opening sequence from Father Ted. For some reason, I couldn't get the song "My Lovely Horse" out of my head for the whole time I was there.

Here's a I took;

I was there last summer, it's easily one of the most beautiful places I've seen in this country or even abroad. Not as culchie as you may think, it has quite a large population of hippyish/surfer types. Mayo is an incredibly underrated county.

Oh and I think the 'mullet' is because there are alot of mullet fish there :P
