how gentlemanlike of you if you have a car go down the country she'll like it even more that you made the effort... and wexico is a nice place in the summer just be wear of the wexican banditos they will F**k you up

The strawberry beds are on the northside.

I thought according to that old song "The strawberry beds sweep down from the liffey, You'll kiss away the worries from my brow I love you well today And I'll love you more tomorrow ..." Thats the end of it, i couldn't remember it !

Strawberry are horrible anyway who'd want to eat or pick em ! They are full of pips and i afaik they are picked by eastern europeans for about €1 per hour :mad: and a bite to ate.

Regards netwhizkid

After all that, the place was closed down.

Bought two punnets of strawberries and ate them on the beach, got burnt as a crisp and now applying the after sun....oh what a day to remeb....
