Good man "Mark"!!!!!!
Was it love that night ? ::)
Longest pregnancy ever??
The wording is pure brilliant :
" Looking for Mark, may or may not be your name.."
And then : " I drank Corona that night if that jogs the memory ..."
:D :D
'Where you there'....f**k me :-[
I reckon its a brillant marketing idea by Coppers. Its just been on the Ray Dracy show as well.
But in hindsight I don't think Coppers really need any sort of PR at all.
I was in there yesterday at lunch time and they were doing , beef or bacon or fish carvery with all the veg for €.50 or you could have lasagne for €6.50.

Apart from the apalling grammar, I reckon you left the words 'did you' out of that sentence.

€0.50 for real!! :o
In my Dublin days we had lunch in it regular - the main carvery chef was a big guy, sweat pumping off him and all he'd say was "All the veg?" and then he'd dish it up - you'd end up with Mash, Chips, Roast, Garlic Spuds plus a Corquette the odd day plus the two veg of the day. Would take you a few hours to function at any level afterwards if you went the full hog.

The lasagne wasn't great yesterday. Tasted like it had been made from tomato ketchup. I should have stuck with the chicken.
Never ever go for cheap lasagne when eating out.

My sister worked in a pub in Loughrea and they did food. One day she went into the kitchen and the chef was stirring a big pot of mince and ladling it onto sheets of pasta.
What's that.
Lasagne
But it has no tomatoes in it
Loughrea isn't ready for tomatoes in lasagne yet

I suffered the threat of food poisoning on dodgy pub lasagne when I was wooing Mrs BC, still get reminded of eating Mann's stinking lasagne from Shaws!!!

This seems to surface every year. Have a feeling it's fake or else Coppers themselves are behind it.
I wonder why see wants to contact him?
She must have been cleaning up her house and found a Cork hat he'd left behind.
Lives in Phibsboro?
Anyone like to guess what her occupation might be?
Has anybody emailed back yet?

Apparently probably a bad word - bird in an office in Dublin reckons that her cousins boyfriend knows the girl in question etc. etc.
No idea whether or not it's true
