An Irish Girl And English Girl Walk Into A Bar

Nicole Champion

An Irish girl and an English girl walk into a bar to talk about their favourite things. Nothing out of the ordinary? Well except the bar is on the tiny volcanic island of St Helena in the South Atlantic, a place where everybody knows your name, and the barman knows your order, a place where a Union Jack flies outside and it is 30 degrees at Christmas. This is a podcast by two ordinary girls living extraordinary lives.
