Dundalk (from the Irish: Dún Dealgan meaning "Dalgan's Toilet") is a town in County Louth, on the East coast of Ireland. Other names given to Dundalk are Fundalk, Scumdalk, Dumbdalk and El Paso. The town is close to the border with Norn Iron and equi-distant from Bubblin' Dublin and Troublin' Belfast. It was granted its charter in 1189. Within legally defined boundaries it is the largest cesspit in Ireland. Irregardless of this it is a nicer place than Drogheda.
