Fine then! I demand a free Snickers bar every time I log on.
If my demands are not met within twenty four hours, I am outta here!
As my totally reasonable and doable request has not been met, I'm offski.
From now on, any posts under the Wololo brand are from my ghost.
Woo-ooo-ooooo!

Norn Iron is in the running. Ballaghnatrillick ('ford mouth of the three flagstones') and Cloontyprocklis ('lawns overrun with badger warrens') are both in Co. Sligo. The ROI is no slouch, either, with Muckanaghederdauhaulia ('ridge, shaped like a pig's back, between two expanses of briny water') in Co. Galway, and Horetown and Fannystown (no explanation needed), both in Wexford.

Well considering Sligo is our side of the border, NI is out of the running right there. Other funny names, New Twopothouse in Cork, Kilaboy in Clare, Hospital and Effin a short drive away from me in South Limerick and best of all Muff in Donegal, they have a Diving Club, you know.
