I've never been to the North. What's it like? Is there such a heavy leprechaun presence up there? Are there protestant leprechauns? Do leprechauns even have a religion? Are the leprechauns here catholic? Are there *any* leprechauns here at all? Do leprechauns even exist?
Aaahhh..... so many questions.

Well worth going up for booze but if you are going I would advise getting there for 9am or before at the weekends as traffic is mad. You will save about €10 on a litre of spirits and most good 24 packs of beer are about 8-10 cheaper. Before you go checkout this site www.fixtureferrets.co.uk and click on Sainsburys it will give you a list of all the current specials or got their own site if you want to search for prices for particular items.... www.sainsburystoyou.com and use on product search in top right. Also I would use the Credit Card as you wont be getting lots of sterling change for the Euros you pay in. |
