I actually lived and survived living in Dundalk in 1986 while doing an 'AnCo' course (AnCo - -the daddy of Fás -there's a video idea for you) Had the time of my crappy life. The shopping centre bar where we cashed (and drank) our meagre cheques, Crazy Prices, Yellow Pack crisps and lager. The congealed gravy & chips from the van in the square beside the Fairy liquid fountain. The lads from the Kung Fu club going all drunken Jackie Chan on the Ardee college boys outside the courthouse on a Thursday night..... Good times, we'll never see there like again.. Thanks for the traumatic memories...Namaste.
Frankie, whatever happened to 'If its not Dutch, yer paying too much?' We need your wisdom to enlighten us as to why - why Dutch Gold has turned into nothing more than a voice blowing in the wind
I fkin love this and it goes so well with Jinx on headphones for an hour or so then this, then the drone over Dundalk that follows on autoplay. I was feeling really flat and uninspired but now I think I'm gonna save up my pennies and plan an overseas trip to Dundalk. Fk, I might even move there.
Don 't forget the weekly "Invasion of the Oompa Loompas" - by which I mean the droves of drunk 5 feet tall, bright orange-skinned women that crowd the streets outside drinking establishments, waiting for the inevitable entertainment provided by watching extremely drunk men brawl in the street.
The funniest bit for me was trying to pass pork off as poultry. You'll to write a screenplay now called "romancing the battered sausage" Epilogue: in fair old Roma, two lovers meet, and romance blossoms to the gnashing of teeth, And furious mastication of a shared battered sausage, soon leads to wedded bliss, pets, kids, and an overpriced cottage But what could be amiss in this idyllic scene? The immersion isn't on, and everything seems clean... Stay tuned, find out, and don't be alarmed by this blood curdling scream Good luck! 😁
Another little quirk about Dundalk. That I miss dearly is wherever you would go you would see scrawled about everywhere even carved into brick & stone. U F T L H Which means Up The Hood, Fuck The Law.
Frankie we need some meditations on minimum alcohol pricing, where does it leave the YUP boys, how does it impact the art students on Francis street and how, oh how can the governement make this country worse.
Hello Frankie, I'm not sure what this might mean to you but lately I have begun to shop in my local Tesco Rathfarnham having shopped in Lidl Terenure for over a year before that every Thursday having shopped in the more expensive posh SuperValu in Churchtown before that. What can I do? Their bottom line the profit margin or whatever it's called is the same for all three supermarkets and the thought we get what we pay for springs to my mind. Who was the great philosopher who first said we get what we pay for and it wouldn't surprise me if he she was American? All the best and many thanks, Peter Nolan. Ph.D.(physics). D6W.
You missed the Indian takeaway that doubles as a petrol station across from the hospital.
Petrol stations derelict sadly, the relatively new indian is very much still going though
The shopping centre bit is so true. You still hear people missing it.
Nice profile pic

RIP the Fairy Liquid Fountain. There was nothing more Dundalk than the fact that fountain never didn't have fairy liquid in it.
If I didn't know better I'd thought you were talking about Dundalk Maryland. A lot of similarities Cheers from across the pond,
He always hits the nail on the head. 💪🤣😂🇮🇪
For a second I thought he was going to do an international episode on Baltimore
Same, he needs to do a Joppa episode
