42 shops in Clones. The town must have grown recently. I have a tidy sum in punts. I wonder if they would take old english pounds? I thought they were worthless. I've got plenty of those, also.

Good strategy to collect those punts still being held.

Should the campaign not read re-embrace the Púnt (Poont)/Irish pound, since we had it before the incurable Europhiles got their undemocratic way here. Our currently estranged first cousins in the rest of Ulster/Northern Ireland (other than just County Monaghan) could be instrumental here too, by changing from Sterling to Púnts. And with the European Union's (EU's)/Tower of Babel (TB) currency unit - the Euro (or Babelo) currently exchanging out of control, reissuing Púnts could stabilise the Irish economy. Bring back the Púnt for sure, and economic sovereignty with it.

Awesome video, I had a belly laugh, that guy does a pretty good New Jersey accent, putting Clones on my list.
