The characters of Cork

[MerchantOfEnnis]

Was he the same guy who stank to high heavens?

Could you be a bit more specific?

You've just described everyone on the north side

Horrendous smell off him as he walked up Oliver Plunkett street

Know which fella you mean, he was still around up to about 13, 14 years ago wasn't him.
Guy in the picture was seen no more after about 1997. Usually seen standing near Uneeda, the Brog. Never said anything, would just put out his hand when anyone passed him.

Ya that’s right

Ah ok, I don’t remember that guy in the pic so

Who remembers the guy on the left? Small bent- over elderly man who used to always see begging on Oliver Plunkett St up to some point in the late 90s.

It was a fair comment.

South side people smell like Radox shower gel and Calvin Klein "Be".

North side people smell like Red Bull and Fags.

If you really think the smell off southsiders is like Radox shower gel, can I suggest you stop buying items in Deals. And jimmy says you smell more like pee than "Be" tbh.

I don't know if he's been mentioned before but does anyone know who the guy with the big shock of white hair is by the side of the museum in Fitzgerald's park? I think he sleeps there, by choice I would imagine. Not old either, been there for years. I passed nearby in the rain the other day and I thought he was moaning but was actually humming a song. I remember buying him a soup and sandwich from the café a few years ago. Quiet guy, seems no hassle.

I know him to see, you'd wonder what his backstory is, seems harmless alright.
