Where did I say that 100% of all cigarettes smoked here are bought abroad? I don't mind you quoting me, but please don't misquote me.
. . . . or was it that I was informing people of the cuteness of Cork people paying half what the rest of the country is paying for fags?
I'll be in Spain shortly and I have to return here for a few days to attend a wedding. I'll bring you back a packet of fags
Ah now to be fair you didn't say 100% but you did say.......Leo, I'm beginning to have some doubts about you. Where did I say that 100% of all cigarettes smoked here are bought abroad? I don't mind you quoting me, but please don't misquote me.
The vast majority of people who smoke are smoking cigarettes bought abroad......
The "Espana" I see on 100% of the empty cigarette boxes in the smoking areas of busy pubs must be a figment of my imagination.
Sixteen people were smoking (14 with Espana written on the fag boxes and 2 with cancer warnings as-Gaeilge). The two were not from Cork and spoke with cultured Dublin accents;
This may be a Cork phenomenon due to Cork "cuteness", meanness as it's called in Ireland (outside the people's Republic).I did point out that I was doing a Designated Driver run and I had no alcohol on board. Also, I pointed out the meeting point was at the Smoking Area and at closing time. It was no big deal to count the amount of people smoking or where their packets of fags were bought. Once you've got the leprous eye you can't miss.
I recommend my non believers on the forum take note whenever they are in any smoking area (it doesn't have to be a pub).
