Hi! Thanks for visiting my profile! My name's Conal. I'm Irish, I graduated last year from university in Belfast! I studied Computer Science and yes, I can see the matrix. EDIT - I'm getting old, it has now been like 3 years since I graduated :(

I live and work in Dublin, so if you want to find out any information about Dublin I might be able to help you! :)

I love talking to everyone of all different cultures! I've travelled to quite a few places and met many amazing people! Its amazing to me that there are so many kind hearted people in the world. But I want to continue my exploration of the world! Who knows, maybe you could be part of my next adventure! :)

Anyway, send me a message, I don't think I'll bore you but I'll let you be the judge! Sorry if I don't get back to you immediately, I can be very busy during the week and some weekends, but I will get back to you eventually :D

If you need help with English I'd be more than pleased to help you! I can speak a little Irish too, if you want to know how to say, "Where is the bin", then I'm your man ;) EDIT - Since writing this I actually now forget how to say "Where is the bin" in Irish XD.

I don't know what goes here so here's a joke :)

Have you heard of Paddy Englishman, Paddy Irishman and Paddy Scotsman? Well, Paddy Irishman, Paddy Englishman and Paddy Scotsman are the only survivors of a plane crash in the desert. Though the ordeal has bonded them like brothers they're all now dying of thirst. It looks like it's all over until they find a magic lamp!
"I'll give each of you two wishes," says the genie.
The Englishman knows exactly what he wants. "I wish for a pint of ice cold lager and to be back home in Aylesbury where I belong!"
"Done!" Bellows the genie, and the last thing the Scot and the Paddy see is the Englishman taking a big swig of Kronenbourg as he disappears.
"Alright, who's next?"
"Me!" Shouts the Scot. "I want a bottle of Irn Bru and to be back home with me wife and bairn in Dundee."
The genie waves his hand and the Scot fades from existence greedily quaffing his vile orange piss.
"And yourself?" Asks the genie of the Irishman. Paddy thinks for a moment.
"How about a big bottle of whiskey?" The bottle appears before him almost instantaneously.
"And your second wish?"
"Ah Jaysis? It's no good without company. I want me two best friends back to enjoy it with me!"
