Then after that, I went to the chemist to buy some deodorant. When I asked about it, she spoke softly but with a very strong Irish accent and asked me "ball-type or aerosol?". I told her I just wanted some for my armpits.
One time in Ireland, I bought a sandwich. When I paid for it and said Thank you, she said You're welcome. I got the strong impression she was talking on behalf of the entire country.
I heard about a guy who married a reasonably wealthy Irish woman, despite having a good bank balance etc., she could only get 3 month tourist visas. So England might be a better option.
