AH, IS THERE anything more beautiful and evocative than the phrase “big bag of cans”?
It instantly conjures up memories of baking in the sun and drinking cheap lager that tastes like a penny that laid undiscovered in the back of a pair of jeans. Fine, fine memories.
With Ireland currently in the midst of a heatwave (read: sustained sunshine with no rain), what better time to honour the Bag Of Cans™?
Because nothing says “It’s summer and the Leaving Cert is coming up” like a big bag of cans.
It’s in the dictionary.
