Right. It seems to depend where you are. You lot, being farmers and rednecks, get a big, hefty half-gallon in a glass whereas in Düsseldorf and Köln, being more white-collar towns, beer is traditionally served in dinky little half-like glasses.

You're right p - SW is the least Irish person here - he's a dubber so indiscernible really from any other urban chav in these islands :-) My credentials stem from my great great grandaddy who was a tinker that came to England and settled. So 1/16th mick but I will claim Irishness whenever it suits.

Yes, that anniversary was trailed last week. The fact is that Weller deserves a lifetime amnesty from criticism for his output with The Jam, especially All Mod Cons.
