Flat 7-Up, The Den, getting a shift… and leaving on the immersion
If you grew up in Ireland then the hashtag that has been trending today is something you can definitely relate to.
#GrowingUpIrish has seen a load of nostalgic folk tweet their childhood memories that just don't occur anywhere else in world.
From Socky and Dustin on The Den, The Late Late toy show and still not being able to speak Irish after years of learning it, these tweets have literally summed up our lives and they are hilarious!
Remember Molly and Rossa the Morbegs from Morbegsland?

Hating, but being simultaneously jealous of the Billy Barry Kids on the Late Late Toy Show. #growingupirish
