ALL’S FECKIN’ TERRIFYING IN LOVE AND WAR
The best way to describe Felix’s approach to chatting up women would be to compare it to Upham’s, the squad translator from Saving Private Ryan, attitude towards discharging his firearm. I witnessed same trembling. The same sweating. And the same sense of doomed resignation. So, four months after we co-starred in an Irish Times feature, I’m a delighted (and a little surprised) to learn that Felix has found love. He has, apparently, been seeing a girl for a couple of months now.
Granted, it was Emre Ilkme of Kama Lifestyles who informed me of this development, and he was probably claiming at least some of the credit for himself. (He was trying to interest me in a follow-up piece.) But, nonetheless, I’m chuffed for my former wingman. Fair play to ya, buddy!

Yeah whatever EK. I’m Ireland’s twelfth most influential tastemaker. So when I say you’re a cock – people listen.

Okay, I’ve belatedly realised what you’re talking about. Apologies for calling you a cock!
