    Dubai rose is good. Very natural. Bit of Gaelige no harm and being from abroad this year is essential.

    I used tire of the American roses, but having connected with distant cousins through DNA and genealogy, who left around the famine I've had a change of heart.

    They went through so much to make good and their Irish heritage means everything to them.

    Yeah when you live in Boston and then Dublin for the first eight years of your life you'd think she'd have a different accent.

    Rose of Tralee always signified the end of summer for me since childhood.

    In fairness it's the bróga troma dance so calling it a "heavy reel is" an ok translation, I think.

    I don't know if I should watch it, I always feel miserable afterwards after seeing all those men with the attractive ladies, I was chatting to Quasimodo in the queue when they were handing out good looks. There are many men out there who don't realise how lucky they are in life.
