    Hi,

    I was in Pennys in Dundrum on Saturday and picked up two of the above. They were marked as 6 eur but when I went to pay for them they were only 1 eur each. I asked the cashier to check and she confirmed that the price was correct.

    I got a tee shirt and a sleeveless. I tried the tee shirt in a run this morning and it was grand. It was as good as most of the stuff you get in races but without all the adverts. They colours they had were bright orange, bright yellow and black.

    You can't lose.

    They have to be losing money on these. I just had a look at the label and they were made in Madrid not some far eastern sweetshop.

    Do you really believe that? The label may have been made in Spain.

    I was trying to come up with a witty remark about "made in madrid" in Spanish, but this is better:

    http://lyricstranslate.com
    English
    Lady Madrid

    More beautiful than any other, made everyone stand up,
    with more nights than the moon, everything was alright.
    You tried your luck in 1996,
    from Malaga to La Coruña, sleeping in the train station.

    (chorus)
    The star of the roofs, the best rock n’ roll here
    we were hanging cats, Lady Madrid ...

    More addictive than any other, but so hard to catch,
    had an apartment up high, handle it with care,
    You tried your luck with neighborhood heroes and me too,
    Some still doubt, if will come back ...

    (chorus)
    The star of the roofs, the best rock n’ roll here
    we were hanging cats, Lady Madrid ...
    Slim skinny pants, they were The Burning, Ronaldos and Lou Reed,
    and the newspapers never talked about Lady Madrid ...

    The star of the roofs, the best rock & roll here
    we were hanging cats, Lady Madrid ...
    Slim skinny pants, they were The Burning, Ronaldos and Lou Reed,
    and the newspapers never talked about Lady Madrid ...

    Lady Madrid, Madrid Lady, Lady Madrid ...
