    Well everywhere except Dublin sucks obviously, but I heard a rumour that you can only get Kearns sausages in Dublin, if that's true, then I nominate that sh*t. God I miss them...

    Listen son, the only good thing to come out of Donegal is the accent. And that is only its when spoken by slim, dark haired girls with big tits, a filthy mind and mischievous eyes.
