James in Antrim was at the shop putting his messages into his Sean Coyle Show hessian bag and the woman at the checkout said it was the fifth such bag she'd seen that day and thought the show must be very popular.
Joe in Loughinisland used to tickle the belly of a trout in the river and sometimes they would relax so much that he was able to grab it and throw it to the bank. Joe in Ardoyne did the same and they called it 'hand walloping'. Sean used to get a fishing line and attach a lead weight and a hook and throw it into the Foyle but only ever caught 'fluke'. 
William in Newry wonders if it's true that you can drown a fish by dragging it backwards.
Mark The Trucker sent in a request for Enrique Iglesias and thinks he deserves it to be played after all the effort he put in to spelling the name.
