'Don't mind me, I'm only your mother.'

'You're making a holy show of yourself.'
'It's all fun and games until someone has their eye out.'
'Don't make me come up there!'
This handy collection of Mammyisms will ensure you are never without an Irish Mammy’s words of wisdom.
Kunak McGann grew up in Drogheda back in the days when electronic tablets were unheard of (she can still remember the excitement when the family got a ZX Spectrum – Luna Crabs, anyone?) and playing out on the street was the most fun kids could imagine. Eventually, she had to grow up and get a proper job. Now she works in publishing and lives in Kildare with her husband, two lively sons and one chilled-out dog.
it might be small in size, but it packs a punch! … brilliant …it’s just marvellous
