    I recently found my copy of this, was packed away in the loft with other stuff.
    Anyhow its the one with this cover
    http://www.corkslang.com/

    is that the original book ?
    as online it shows a different cover when I google it of a book with a yellow cover and the fish on it.

    Asking out of sheer curiosity

    I think the one you have is the original cover. I remember buying it nearly 30 years ago (yikes!).

    I was given my copy by a buddy in the pub the night Ireland beat romania on penalties in the world cup back in 1990.
    not as long as yourself but makes you think how fast time flies
