No Rock And Roll Fun

GIVE OUT, BUT DON'T GIVE UP: As we were talking about the Cranberries v Nanny battle, we said we didn't quite know what Dolores meant when she conceeded her husband "gave out" to the Nanny. We had been hoping it was going to turn out to be slightly rude - not bukkake rude, but in that general area. We were a bit wide of the mark, it seems, as Neil tells us by email:

To give out - is to verbally chastise someone. It's a common expression in
Ireland.
[apols if this is the 94th email on this topic]

Nope, you were first, Neil - thanks.
