		<description>Feckless - I don't know if he smoked.  The tobacconist sells lots of other things as well.

Karyn - If you don't drink Guinness, you are pushing things a bit, but you will be tolerated.  When I say drink Guinness properly, I mean you have to &lt;a href="http://www.headrambles.com/2007/10/10/how-to-survive-your-first-guinness/" rel="nofollow"&gt;follow the rules&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>Oh dear, I'll have to rethink my desire to visit! The map thing I can do, but I don't drink Guinness properly. I don't drink it at all. The closest thing I come to any variety of drink that falls under the "beer" umbrella is cider. Oh dear. I think I just became persona non grata :-(</description>

Baino - Coward!!</description>

		<description>Grandad,

You might have also have pointed out that we not only do excellent landfills in scenic areas, but we also do a good line in fly tipping and graffiti and we have some very fine examples of building bungalows so as to intrude as much into the landscape as possible.</description>

		<description>Wickles - Just take the advice I gave Karyn above.  Anyway, it's a very nice landfill.  It's in a very scenic area [as are all our landfills].  You'd love it.</description>

		<description>I hope to visit Ireland one day. Should I run into someone at a tobacconist, I will remember not to ask for directions or accept rides. I don't think I wish to visit the landfill while I am there. 

Your posts always make me smile.</description>
