Living in Stoke is hard enough without being Irish into the bargain!! It's fecking hard to get rid of the oul stereotypes ya know? It seems every other sensible Irish student headed for the bright lights of Liverpool or Leeds University so the outcome is that genius here hasn't run into one single person from the republic!!So for now, I'm blogging the cultural differences and every day events of probably the unluckiest Irish there is! Bain sult as!-(enjoy!)
