We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again, you’re not really on Twitter if you don’t follow Marian Keyes.
The Irish author proved our statement once again in the last 24 hours by asking the world to explain to her “the nuance of ‘a bag of cans’”?
A phrase you might have heard time and time again over the spell of fine weather.
Irish people! A request – can anyone explain to me the nuance of ‘a bag of cans’? I’d be SO grateful, I HATE feeling left out

According to slang.ie, a ‘bag of cans’ is an Irish party favourite made up of a “Plastic bag containing warm cans of Bulmers”.
In an attempt to stop feeling left out, the Irish author wanted the full lowdown.
She asked her 145 thousands followers, which cans should be placed in her bag and whether she should use a reusable ‘yoke’ or a Tesco plastic bag?
Like, *which* cans should I have in my ‘bag of cans’?
What kind of bag? Tescos plastic? A reusable yoke? A ‘haversack’? (Worst word!)— Marian Keyes (@MarianKeyes) June 25, 2017
And *where* should I drink my ‘bag of cans’? In a field, on the Dart, in my own living room? Do I share? Or lunge at any person who *nears*?

Yes, we plan of framing some of these epic replies.
I think it’s this generation’s bottle in a brown bag

Generally bulmers in a plastic bag.. Heineken if you had notions, in a quinsworth/Tesco style

Living in student land, no bag required, just buy a slab and carry home, showing of yer guns,.
