The only love I may ever know

Nice song. Sort of uplifting.

Why do you want to live in Ireland? It rains a lot? here and the roads are so congested that on a bad day it can take an hour to move 500m down the M50. We have a reputation of being welcoming that we really don't deserve. Amazingly enough, we don't all have red hair. My Irish is atrocious to say the least and the only night-life generally available outside of Dublin are the local pubs. The bartenders there are welcoming all right, but only because they know you'll be lining their pockets as you drink the night away.

Plus we have a huge problem with alcohalism and all the additional problems which go with that such as a clogged up emergency service and hundreds of drunk-driving offenses. People try to blame the government for everything. I think the Irish are one of the worst "races" in terms of accepting their own responsiblity as they will try to pin it on anybody else but themselves. If somebody drinks too much and drives into a tree it's obviously the government's fault for not helping the person over an alcohal addiction because they're focussing on improving toliet facilites in run-down primary schools instead. If somebody goes gambling and loses everything and end up with no-where to live, once again it's the government's fault for no having enough council housing. I could go on, it's amazing what you can blame the government for if you try hard.

These are all the things Ireland would never put on a holiday advert so if you ever do decide to visit Ireland don't expect the land of saints and scholars. And don't be fooled by the friendly bartenders either.
