Spilling The Tea

March 15, 2017March 15, 2017 Quinn48 Comments

If you ask anyone abroad what the national beverage of Ireland is, I would wager that they’re likely to say Guinness. After all, Guinness has been successfully plying their trade for years now – 258 years, to be exact – with Irishness as a large part of its brand persona. It has the harp, and…… Continue reading Spilling The Tea

Ireland, I Love You But…

March 8, 2017May 12, 2017 Quinn35 Comments

It’s the 8th of March. This day is important. This month is also important; after all, March brings with it St. Patrick’s Day. Or Paddy’s Day, if you prefer. Not Patty. Never Patty.

Hi There!

I’m Quinn! Nice to meet you!

Just give me a moment while I move in for a hug, then feel a sudden surge of pure, undiluted awkwardness and pull back just as you lean in, then stick out my hand stiffly before muttering, ‘Oh screw it’ and giving you a bear hug. A bear hug from a tiny bear. A koala hug, if you will.

I’m in my thirties and as confused as ever.
