Many people here from Dublin?

Everyone I've seen posting seems to be from Cork :lol:

Any Dublin folk about? I'm seeing a ridiculous amount of Minis these days so hopefully there are a few..

The only good thing to come out of Dublin is the road to Cork!

Sure isn't everyone jealous of the 3 hour commutes in Dublin, the 2 hours waiting for a taxi on a Saturday night, and the 1 hour it takes to queue at the M50 Toll Bridge :twisted:

Sure I had a 17mile commute everyday for the last year through the city (northside to southside). Never took me more than an hour and 15mins. Could do it in 45mins most days.
Never taken me longer than 5mins to get a taxi either.

Urban myths lads :P

You're right about the M50 toll bridge though - theres a test of a Minis cooling system if ever I saw one! :lol:

I had to leave Cork. It was full of lankers
