I love Malahide. Had our wedding reception at the Grand. Have a good friend who lives in Malahide so always try to meet up with her for a drink in Gibneys and then a meal when I am home.

[Buda]

My mum worked in Cadburys when I was about 10. It was great!

I remember that doctor.

What year did your SIL leave?

[Buda]

Poor Roopoo! Have we totally put you off Jacinta?

[stleger]

Having asked my kids and dh we only know the one really nice Jacinta. So if you keep away from Dublin it is fine. My dh used to have to bring me Tiffin bars from Dublin when we were in Belfast, I think Irish Cadburys is the best chocolate.

[Roopoo]

Ha ha ha no I still really love it!!!!
But I also like Esme so Im torn really......

[Buda]

Esme. Definitely. MUCH prettier than Jacinta.

[stleger]

I knew a nice Esme a few years ago; she worked in an office with Lois and Topsy! Time for a Topsy revival? Esme and Jacinta are very different sounds.

[chipmonkey]

We had a cat called Topsy. She was scary!

I think it's lovely

Not keen, sorry. I dislike both pronunciations - seems a little harsh to me. Cynthia seems a little better, but not much.
