About Cork

Now, ‘Whore’, she’s a beaut, but temperamental, arrgh! Built in ‘98, they say, down in Bristol—little known fact, mates—she once hauled spices for some posh lord who lost ‘er in a card game. Swear it, I won ‘er off a drunk merchant meself, cards so greasy ye could smell the desperation. Made me happy as a clam, that did—‘til she sprang a leak mid-sea! Bloody hell, I was ragin’, yellin’ “I’m a pirate, not a carpenter!” Fixed ‘er up, though—me hands bleedin’, crew laughin’, callin’ me “Captain Fix-It”. Savvy?

Leixlip is a town in north-east County Kildare, adjacent to the border with County Dublin and close to that of Meath.

But then, the music starts blasting, and I can’t hear a thing. I’m trying to chat with Dave, but it’s like shouting into a hurricane.

Intel’s Leixlip plant could produce the newest high-tech chips – but it won’t, for now
