November 6, 20214 yr Author They call themselves Celtics...but.... They are not Irish, really. I don't even like basketball. I prefer laying with Maggie in the Wood. Basketball, compared to Maggie, is just so ho-hum.

November 6, 20214 yr Years ago in states I drank Bushmills for awhile because it was ridiculously cheap. In Thailand I'd never pay the price. Prefer bourbon or SCOTCH scotch whiskey.

Prefer bourbon or SCOTCH scotch whiskey. I could be pedantic, so I will be. Scotch whisky is not spelt whiskey ???????? The Irish added the extra "e" to denote the superior product, because it is distilled three times and not twice.
November 7, 20214 yr Popular Post When I first came to Thailand I would take a bottle of Irish whiskey over for the father in-law. Jameson's Bushmills Tullamore Dew Then the airport ran out of decent Irish stuff so I got Scottish single malts. Glenfiddich etc I then heard a whisper that he wondered why I was bringing him all this rubbish when all he wanted was Johnny Walker red label ???? (we call it paint stripper) I saved my money and got him the paint stripper ????

I'm sure many are fooled - yet, a handful aren't.
November 7, 20214 yr I would like to nominate GammaGlobulin as "POTY" poster of the year, if that is still a thing?
November 7, 20214 yr I've spent a lot of time in Ireland, and enjoyed the castles very much, but the weather sucks. I wanted to listen to live rebel music played in an authentic Irish pub, but never managed to find one. Those Irish tv ads showing the peasants decked out in their finest enjoying a rousing rebel tune while sucking on a pitcher of Guinness are just lies, IMO. The traffic in Dublin is worse than Bkk IMO. Irish beaches are rubbish. Irish B and Bs cost too much.

The traffic in Dublin is worse than Bkk IMO. Irish beaches are rubbish. Irish B and Bs cost too much. The weather does suck. I think you went to the wrong places, loads of great pubs with good music. And by the way, we don't do a pitcher of Guinness we do a picture of Guinness. Seriously you would never put Guinness in a pitcher and decanter it into a pint glass. That is sacrilege. Don't mess with the Guinness!
November 10, 20214 yr Ah memories! Summer of 1996. 3 months working for a Express Parcel Company as a customer agent. (Dublin/Tallaght). During those summer months, I had no complaints about the weather. Irish landscape beautiful. Weekends at "Temple-Bar" in Dublin: Unforgettable. The "scene" was bubbling and boiling. But rents were high. We had to share a house among the 4 of us. Compared to our salary, we found that the Guiness was rather expensive. This was at a time, when I thought that earning much money was the main thing in my life. So I quit my job and moved on to greener financial pastures. But what remains mostly, is a certain "warmth" that the Irish seem to radiate toward other people, once they have classified you as "an honest man". Hard to explain and hard to find the right words for it. Fond memories, especially as far as this is concerned. But that was 25 years ago. Today? I wonder.

I'll say what everyone else usually says about everywhere including Thailand and Ireland. It was better back then! I'm surprised you got out of tallaght alive. The pitbulls go round in twos. And if you're drinking in temple bar you're paying tourist prices.

The most disappointing thing is to head off face first into the jungle only to discover you've been duped by another overzealous bush trimmer.
