Jesus mate, it can’t be worth it, you need to get out, the head must be melted off ya down there

Everywhere he looks and turns he sees confidence and pride of place. That doesn’t fit with the Angela’s ashes childhood @thelimericks had

Would Cork be an insular kind of place? Would they pull up the drawbridge to blow ins? Or is that just an impression I have?

[backinatracksuit]

I wouldn’t have thought so, I don’t think anywhere is like that really, county rivalries are all for a bit of fun. None of the 5 in my family settled down with somebody from Cork

I couldn’t live somewhere and run it down constantly,

Cork is the most multicultural city in the country

Waterford was like that when we arrived here or at least that’s what my mother felt. I went to Mt Sion acquired the flattest City accent ever and settled right in.

Corks lack of proximity to a proper beach would be its biggest drawback for me.

East Cork is very insular and i love it for it, did you not find them clannish when you played for Midleton?

[backinatracksuit]

Not at all, we had 5 city boys then and there was never an bother, we went to every pub in Midleton and it was mighty,
My sister and Limerick brother in Law lived in Midleton for ten years and loved it,
I find it crazy really that people could be insular in this day and age.
As far as I’m concerned you’ll always have good natured slagging on county loyalties, who’s want it any other way, misplaced confidence is part of that, I play that game all the time in Limerick, at work and out and about, nobody would want it any other way, @Heyyoubehindthebushes gets very bad about it,

It’s mad how lads somehow think people are completely different to themselves just because they live 10 or 20 km up the road

[estebandaface]

Its true though.

People in cobh are different than people up the road in carrigtwohill.

People in youghal are different than people across the bridge in clashmore.

Different accents, different attitude, just different

[Locke]

Interesting viewpoint. Having lived in both over the past 20 odd years I would prefer Douglas over East Cork.

Mad or the very foundations of the GAA ?!..
