Live in The Hague, but I’m from Ireland. More importantly, from Cork.
Where I came from, it was Ip Dip Dog Shit. Regional variations on a classy theme.

No British teachers seconded to the European schools anymore either. Another soft power opportunity lost. That dipshit Johnson attended one of the European Schools. Great guy for hauling up the ladder with him.

On holidays in France years ago, my brother held his obviously sick child in his arms. He asked a local: ‘Bonjour Monsieur, où est le pharmacie?’. The reply: ´Non, non, Monsieur, c’est ‘là’ pharmacie’. My brother told him where to shove it, and stormed off with the guy shouting directions at him.

Interesting! My great-grandfather was a typesetter for a newspaper. The apprenticeship must have been difficult: it must’ve been very fiddly work, I’d imagine. I’m sorry I never got to meet him: I work in publishing.

Hmm. I can’t hate it. I’ve always loved Thinking About You, and the album reminds me of a very fun time in my life.
