As a serious study of the nuances of the English language as spoken in Ireland, this book is as useful as tits on a bull.

On the other hand, if you'd like to have a baldy of understanding the various expressions you regularly hear around Ireland, you'd have to be a few brassers short of a whorehouse to ignore it.

So stall the ball there! Whether you're a fine doorful of a woman or you're so hungry you'd eat an oul' wan's arse through a blackthorn bush, this invaluable collection of Ireland's most treasured (and irreverent) sayings is definitely worth having a gander at.
