Conversation with a Dublin cabbie / worst anecdote EVER - interface
Yonks ago when I went to Dublin we were in a cab.
Cabbie was a genial sixtysomething Dubliner who said "Good on 'em" at the end of pretty much every sentence.
Anyway, he told me the following anecdote that with the dramatic pauses and stuff, went on for a good five minutes.
