Cork in Top 5 cities in the world for sickos/weirdos

[anon78624367]

Go down and have a stroll around the town.

Stay the fuck away out of Kinsale. There’s fuck all down there and you’ll get fleeced.

If you want to do something missusy head away up to blarney castle and kiss the blarney stone. Not too far out of the town

Well worth the 5 grand

I’m going to Cork for a weekend this month, driving down Saturday and staying in the city Saturday night. I will be in the company of European lady of a cultural persuasion. Do any forum Carkonians have any advice for what we should see/do?

Do not talk to anyone.
Do not make direct eye contact with anyone.
Keep your arse to the wall at all times.
If you see a chap with a sombrero, shoot it dead.

Just grab this breast in a bun, have a wee look at the English Market and then go on to Kinsale? We’ve a hotel room in city centre, what do people do in Cork? Where do you drink, at home?

Do you have to go to Cork, Would you not just go to Waterford or Limerick?

No need to go to Kinsale if only there for weekend. Crawford art gallery, check out what is on in the Triskel might be something arty for her…few traditional pints of Beamish in Callanans. Grub in elbow lane. Live music til late on the Oliver Plunkett bar, prob choice of 3 or 4 artists

The Oliver plunkett is an awful touristy hole of a place

There’s an unreal Japanese restaurant there. Run by a lad who used to cook for the Emperor of Japan. “Saipan” I think they call it.
