Man Thinking Of Giving Up Alcohol For November Soon

Local man Tom Howard confirmed to his Polish taxi driver last night, that he was ‘definitely’ thinking of giving up alcohol for the month of November, a little closer to the end of the month.

Explaining that it’s an old Irish tradition to ‘give the body a sort of holistic leg up’ before the festive season’s excesses, he stressed that it made a lot of sense ‘when you actually think about it’.

Pawel Balewicz said he had heard of this custom ‘many times’ and that the fare would be €15.

Privately Howard concluded Balewicz probably didn’t believe him because the idea of giving up alcohol would be entirely foreign to a culture like his.
