Craic does mean fun but you have to say it properly. When you're having fun you're having THE craic. Make sure you use THE.
If you're describing something as fun you have to use an adverb with it.
So you can't say "It is Craic". You have to say "It's great Craic" or "It's brilliant craic" or "It's no craic" if it is in fact no craic.

Next time you have a conversation with an Irishman I bet within 5 minutes he uses the word Craic. I've been to Ireland and its full of wallies who think they're funny when thay are not. It reminds me of Liverpool where you'll find a man in every pub who thinks he's an undiscovered stand-up comedian. I smile politely and hope he moves away.
Apart from those deluded turwats, the Irish and the Liverpudlians are such nice and friendly people. -

I know the Irish eat something called a 'hang', I always thought it was a mispronounciation of ham until someone said "Did I say ham? I did not say ham, I said hang, now d'ya want a hang sandwige or not? Grand stuff it is"
