The People's Hero Posted 23 February 2006 Posted 23 February 2006 Birthplace of the eighteenth century dramatist who's famous quotes include, amongst others.. 'Women are meant to be loved, not to be understood' and One should always be in love. That is the reason one should never marry. This City is the 'call centre of Europe' with over 100,000 people employed in the industry. Allegedly Europe's most popular destination for stag and hen parties. I feel I've made that far too easy.
The People's Hero Posted 23 February 2006 Posted 23 February 2006 Also, this city has 12 namesakes in the USA and 6 in Australia.
The People's Hero Posted 23 February 2006 Posted 23 February 2006 Correct - it was Dublin. Other 'facts' I have found about it. More homosexuals per capita, allegedly, than San Francisco. Saint Valentine was martyred in Rome on February 28th eighteen centuries ago. He was the Bishop of Terni. His remains are in a cask in White Friar Street Church, Dublin. He is no longer recognised as a Saint by the Vatican.
Lemon Harpic Posted 23 February 2006 Posted 23 February 2006 Here goes... Scotland's largest town. US President Ronald Reagan's great grandfather was born here. Britain's first topless hair salon was opened here, called "A Bit Off The Top". Customers get a short back and sides from topless female hairdressers for £50 a time.
