Hard to believe Dublin is only one spot behind Paris - which I record as phenominally dear
Rome as well and Hong Kong. How Dublin can be dearer than those two beats me

Also if you head to O'Carroll's Irish giftshop in Westmoreland St, they sell authentic retro Arsenal shits (same as on me signature) complete with number
7 on the back - great value for €25.

yeah... just don't wander into the wrong areas (plural) or pubs (again, plural) or you will get kicked to death by a mob because you believe in a slightly different version of the same religion...
Better looking women in Belfast??!! Better than where, mate? A junkie housing estate in Manchester??!! I worked on and off in Northern Ireland for years and Belfast is one of the biggest kips I've ever been in, most of the women are dogs, the locals are (mostly) seriously unfriendly and they have a bigger victim complex than the Scousers!!
Also one of the most racist and sectarian cities I've ever been in.
