Actually this isn't a book review at all- just a celebration of this book's time capsule quality, as it contains quaint Irish pearls of wisdom that you probably wouldn't hear on the streets of Limerick any more:
"You want another piece of bread? Bejesus- next thing you'll be wanting an egg as well"
"Tis not a thing in the world that beats a fine feed of milk and apples"
"I like the look of that waitress. Maybe later we'll go back to my house and have the excitement together."
"Ahh come now. As long as you've got your health, a good head of hair and shoes what have you got to complain about?"
"You've got the filthy hair of a presbyterian"
I reckon this is how all book reviews should be: just a list of amusing and occasionally made-up quotes. Try using the above phrases in your local Irish pub. In there's one thing they'll love it's an English guy who can do a good Irish accent...

OMG, one of the worst movies I've ever had the displeasure of wasting 2 hours of my life on! Horrid, just horrid, stab-me-in-the-heart-with-a-knife-life-couldn't-get-any-worse-opp-no-I-was-wrong crap.
