Nothing beats a good Irish house party. There’s usually Tayto on the go and everyone’s having a laugh. Here are 13 people you meet at every Irish house party…
The cheeky chap
He’s the one that thinks it’s a good idea to steal a traffic cone and have a laugh with the guards when they call around.
The complete stranger
You’ll end up having the bants with them and they probably know someone you know.
The ex
And you will definitely say “sure isn’t it a small world?”

The person who knows you but you can’t remember their name
“Weeeellll….. yoooou! How are things?”
The concerned mammy
Aww, reminds us of our own.
The angry neighbour
Sure they’re no craic.

The sleepy housemate
Should have made other arrangements or bought REALLY good earplugs.
The one who has too many
You’ll see them dancing on top of a table or having an argument with someone they’ve just met.
The person who can’t miss their favourite television show
There’s always one watching The Late Late Show or Match of the Day in the corner.

The person who eats all the Tayto
Seriously, step away from the nibbles. (Also, they’re supposed to be nibbles, not your dinner.)
The singer
Songs of choice tend to be Galway Girl, Wonderwall or The Gambler.
The hugger
Wow, that is WAY too close and you’re seriously going to regret that photo come tomorrow morning.
The tea and toast maker
Best. Person. Ever.
