    You’re either eating the wrong fish or eating the wrong fanny.

    Nah trimethylamine, the compound in fish flesh that lends the characteristic “fishy” odour is also the same compound produced by bacteria in cases of bacterial vaginosis.

    I’m not just saying they smell similar.

    They are quite literally the same smell

    Yeah, definitely the wrong fanny. If a woman uses the anti-bacterial wash for it, it's pretty much non-existent, and definitely not unpleasant.

    The song Hallelujah, originally by Leonard Cohen, covers by Jeff Buckley and many, many more. It gives me the willies, to be frank.

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    Any kind of touristy hotspot. The likes of say Glendalough, Hellfire Club, Killiney or Howth on a bank holiday or nice day. To me the experience of being out in nature is just ruined when you throw in queues for carparking, ice cream vans, people everywhere etc. I'd much rather go on a day off on a Monday morning and just enjoy it in peace. I'd take the peace of a back garden with a bottle of Chardonnay any day over fighting for parking spots and fish and chips etc.

    Parents were all excited to go to Bray when the restrictions lifted and the weather took up, then said there were huge traffic jams. Well wtf did they expect? If the world and its mother is headed one way, it's generally a good idea to go the other :D

    I must admit Glendalough was great last year without all the tourists. I was able to get some nice photos.

    I've already resigned myself to the fact that my own personal lockdown is going to go on for at least a few months after everyone else's has ended, because the thought of going anywhere when everywhere is rammed with people gives me the fear.

    Weddings - too long , always having to make small talk with people you don’t know , always wrecked after the dinner at about 7 or 8 and would love to piss off home or up to the room and relax .

    Don’t get me started on the day after .

    ****ing GAA....cant warm to it.

    Although on reflection I think it's more that cohort of feeble minded gob****es that insist on screaming abuse at 12 year olds The referee etc and the pricks wouldn't be able to tie their own shoe laces properly....

    The all consuming need to talk about it constantly....cant be healthy

    In the same vein as die hard fans supporting English soccer clubs over here talking about we and transfer fees as if they'd paid them out of their own pocket.....and I like soccer but ffs broaden your horizons just a tiny bit he monocultural cretins.

    Live and let live eh... :D

    Ah no I get ya, I can't stand horse talk. Trainers. Jockeys. Gallops and jodpurs. So I actively avoid socialising with those I know who are in to it.

    Just remove yourself from the situation and let them have their fun :)

    Music festivals. I will never, ever understand the appeal. I've tried, god knows I've tried. I've been to Glastonbury and Electric Picnic and another one in England I can't remember the name of and... I just don't get it. They were all torture. Glastonbury especially. Way too many people, it takes about an hour to get from one stage to another, the toilets are godawful, you have to queue for ages to get a drink or food. Maybe if I took lots of drugs it would've been bearable. Maybe that's the secret...

    Festivals certainly but outdoor gigs full stop.

    The sound from the stage is generally piss poor..that’s my main beef... I’m not going for any fücking ‘experience’, I go to a gig because I’m a massive music fan...and massive live music fan. I want to get the best experience, I want to hear it, crystal clear and loud.

    The Q’s just to eat something, drink something and use toilets, three fûcking basics of your day take in total, hours of your day...

    kodaline, urrgh, 2nd worst band name I can think of right now, sounds like a cough mixture for infants or a soluable headache tablet.

    and the worst, oh god, can i even write this without the douche chills.

    razorlight.

    Yep, stopped going to the local forest on weekends, will usually go straight from work during the week.

    Even a local stretch of canal is jammed at the weekend, say a 2km stretch pre covid you would meet 4/5 people on average, now probably 10 times that if the weather is decent.

    Never got people not liking them, as they have such a variety of stuff that they cut across generes etc.

    Just out of interest have you listened to much of their stuff? I think some people who don't like them think that they just do the jingly jangly stuff from their early career.

    I recommend sparking up a big spliff and lie back and listen to Sgt Pepper's :)

    Don't mind the actual day but this day after rubbish. Will go for it usually and be the last one standing after the first day but that's enough for me.

    Having to do it all again when your dying and just want to go home and veg in front of a box set
