Outside Bakers pub on Thomas St two oul lads were smoking when I overheard this snatch of their conversation:

"Yeah, we buried her on Thursday."

"Ah Jaysus I'm very sorry to hear that, cos y'know, I wouldn't have been slagging you about her if I'd known."

Conservatory

An addict girl and her boyfriend walking by Patrick’s cathedral.
Girl: you could have got up last night and done that job with the lads and you were too much of a coward. (Now roaring) I have family in the uk that are millionaires and I stayed here with you and you are too much of a coward to go out and do a job with the lads.

Fella just carry’s on in a daze saying nothing.
