Lads, what’s the story? All I've been hearing about lately is how much Waterford is expanding, becoming a major player in this country, becoming the city it deserves to be and so on. But hang on, we're missing something.
I'm not talking about the lack of a decent cinema, I'm not talking about the need for a radiotherapy unit, I'm not even talking about a second bridge, what I am talking about is that we are deprived of something that Dublin has three or four of, Belfast has one of and NOW, to add insult to injury, F@cking CARLOW has!!!!!!!!!!
I'm talking about finger-licking good chicken. Why do we not have a KFC? Ok I can handle Dublin having them, I can handle even Cork or Galway or even God forbid, Limerick having one, but come the F@ck on.........CARLOW, CARLOW? I still cant believe it.
OK , you might think that I'm a bit thick, taking this to heart and all. But there is only two real things I miss about living in Dublin, one is the cinema, but I really miss that slightly tangy, slightly spicy, succulent lump of chicken breast. Ok, I know its probably shite of the highest order, but By Jingo it's tasty!
So, you can imagine my shock and horror when myself and a couple of other Blaas were coming back from Roy's triumphant return in the green shirt on Thursday when we decided to take a diversion through Carlow to get some grub, we got around a corner and there it was, like an oasis in the "metropolis" of Carlow, shining into the night like a beacon for lost souls, there he was THE COLONEL. I nearly wet myself with the anticipation of what I crave. Needless the say, the speed limit was broken to get there, BUT IT WAS CLOSED! Through my sobbing I suggested we break in, but the lads wouldn't go for it. I circled it a few times, just to make sure, but alas, it wasn’t to be!
My point is that Waterford couldn’t be all it’s cracked up to be, not as long as we are without KFC!
