Pure Dutch tobacco... smuggled into Ireland from the continent... BTW I have seen it's much cheaper here than even buying it from smugglers back at home.

I daresay that Shane enjoys the odd handrolled 'herbal remedy' - it's good for what ails you... :P

Actually, that might explain a lot with regards to Shane's slurred speech, weight gain and tendency to engage in rambling conversation...

Every "pure" thing here is much cheaper than somewhere else... Pure coincindence or ..?

you mean "improving"? yeah, sometimes it turns that handrolling process into real fight with hands, rolls and stuff...

sorry but it is the same shit, unless you buy raw tobacco...

Yeh I noticed! we've been told of glasses of weed for a price that would only buy you a single smoke in the best case....

Yeah - if he enjoys a bit of ganja, then we don't have anything to worry about WRT his health. I've read it in many interviews that Shane sits with one drink for hours and hardly touches it. Wonder how much of the 'Shane the pisspot' legend is a joke at the expense of the media?

Perhaps he's just constantly stoned?

That would explain a lot of things really.... Actually, I never combined drink and good aul stuff but I can imagine you can easily enjoy your drink for a very extended time.... As for the "pisspot" legend, it might have been true in the past so don't blame it all on the media.

I have often wondered if it was all not hugely exaggerated (perhaps even by Shane himself)...

Wouldn't be surprising. Seems like a normal thing to do for people in general. I know for a fact when I drink I sometimes fool around and act like I'm more drunk than I actually am.

Bet you've often exaggerated the number of drinks you've had too (I know I have in the past) - you know, told people you've just drunk 15 pints when you've actually had 8... :twisted:

Yeh, or on the next morning after a party, you mention the 6 pints you had last night, then telling other people about it like in a week's time, it's already 12 pints ;-)
