Nomad works for the police (peelers) and got a promotion which requires him to move to Cork (a city in the south of Ireland).

First, congrats on the new job.
Second, I “know” leprechauns aren’t real*
*I’m aware of the fact that they do and you don’t want to share them...

Paddywankery is real....and it's worth money!
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I always thought that was “pandawankery”...
It would explain why I’m banned from Chinese zoos...

Yeah, tried the whole rhyme while in Ireland:
Nicked a knack - arrested for theft.
Paddy whack - arrested for assault.
Give the dog a bone - award from the SPCA.
Strange people...
