Definitely pre-, although maybe the locals saw the potential for a domestic menace beyond my beautiful eyes (which were the focus of their complements, IE Johnny Depp but with better eyes).
Leaving Ireland today, and I can say that my reception by the locals could be summarized by an interaction I had with a friend of a friend, at a pub called The Celt, who upon my telling him I was from the US, said "You poor, poor cunt."
In all seriousness, people were very welcoming here, especially Droid. I got to spend time in Howth, Roundstone, Clifden, Galway and mostly Dublin.
