    Same time as I do every Thursday that House is on tv.

    No sign of ya last night. :p

    The Snipe is dead, long live the Kess. :D


    I think we could get a Game Of Thrones theme going here.

    You would be Tyrion Lannister the Imp. The woman who lived in the house before you would be the Mad Queen (yes I know it was a mad king in GOT). Tern Tickler could be the Loras Tyrell character.

    funny you should say that actually because as i was coming home last night by o' connell monument a banner caught my eye with "happy saint patricks day from KES", something like that anyway big and bold written on it, i instantly thought "printers must have missed an S, Kess won't be best pleased about that!".

    and then i read- "Kilmartin Educational Services" on it! :o

    waaaay too much time on boards! :D

    I thought we were calling him The Snipe now? :)

    For a shutterbug he was not out and about getting snaps of a few incidents near where he lives yesterday. Lots of blues and twos on parade on the main road, but no little shutterbug getting snaps he could sell to one of the papers.

    :o My bad, Just had to write two giving out emails to different companies, so was a little bit sensitive to what was written and not how it was written :o

    Thanks for the offer, I think I can manage to avoid the waffle thread a bit on my own.

    I made one recently. It was quite nice. Far too much chili left over. If it was the one from Washington that O'Bama ate? They looked nice. I had a load of MVF on Sky+ I need to get around to watching.

    Just did some complaining to the LCC over the stupid new traffic lights in Annacotty. The timing and priority given to the Cappamore road is a disgrace!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,435 ✭✭✭Birdie086


    Did anyone see the white Porche(sp?) in town today parked by MacDonalds???

    English reg, the 'ladies' of the entourage were shopping in Penney's - by shopping I mean roaring up and down the shop at each other, while the menfolk were roaring from the door at said ladies. People who like to travel returning to the old country, IMO, so they could be good catholics and go to mass in an Irish church tomorrow. I wonder what the market value for tarmac is these days??

    The Ballysimon flyover is doing my nut. Changes every time I drive up there. Saw a guy coming from the Tipperary side nearly rip the steering wheel off the car because he couldn't get northbound onto the M7. Fair enough it was rush hour on Friday night and he'd have to drive down to the roundabout and turn around and join the back of the long queue.

    Timing on those lights is nuts since they ripped up the sensors on the ground. I was coming off the M7 from the Roxboro side and it took 15 minutes to get to the lights themselves. :eek:

    Average of 7 seconds per green light.

    oh i have to laugh, some of the lads in here know im using a crutch to get around at the moment, but my wife just pointed out to me there now two lads across the road with a crutch each, lol, apparently now the shams have swapped their walking canes for crutches, its the new fad! i cant bend down at the moment to tuck my pants legs into my socks! :D

    Yeah have seen that. Saw three tracksuited gentlemen each with one crutch near Gleesons shop on Henry street. All walking as if each step was the cause of agonising pain. One went into the shop, then ran out, and his two "crippled" friends each took off like Usain Bolt.

    Seems to be the latest scumbag tactic. Get in close with a fake injury and then they can either run off or use the crutch as a weapon.

    I thought it was the main road that used to have the "Posh" tag, at least that's how it was years ago. I call the main road Ballinacurra (I know it is Ballinacurra Road) just in case anyone thought I meant elsewhere.

    off topic rant coming up-

    actually now you mention it BB that makes more sense than my theory that crutches were the new pimp canes, dont even get me started, feckin €60 every time i go to the GP, €15 for the crutches, and then the pain meds, physio and all the epsom salts and miscellaneous medicines on top of that, and because im working i dont qualify for a medical card. am i bitter? you bet i am, because im also paying a small fortune a month for medical insurance, and that only covers a small proportion of certain medical expenses!

    i have no problem with anyone thats unemployed, i meet people from all walks of life on a daily basis and there are unemployed people i meet that i'd love to give them a job in the morning if i could, hence why i try and tie in with employers that are looking for people to help these people out, because i see them making an effort, but its the people that think they're clever bæstards 'screwing the system' that get my goat, the only person they're fooling in the long term is themselves!

    /rant.

    apologies mods if ye deem that rant inappropriate for the limerick forum as i know its not strictly a limerick phenomenon, please by all means delete if inappropriate.


    subject change- anyone else down at the parade today? these seemed to be a much better effort made this year, although i do miss the bands!

    came down to the people's park afterwards and its lovely to see it so packed with people enjoying themselves! :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,635 ✭✭✭xsiborg


    yknow whatever stereotypes and negative impressions can be made about limerick city, i have to say its far, far outweighed by the many, many more positive aspects, such as the skateboard park down here at steamboat quay actually being used for its intended purpose!

    some sort of an exhibition or competition on down here with some fellas and girls too showing off some mad talented skills on their boards!

    snipe you're missing some great action shots down here, im glad i brought the HD cam to film the parade now as and im getting some great footage here of the skateboarders! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,127 ✭✭✭ZombieBride


    Just back from the parade, got a great picture of XiledSniper's backside.

    The one thing that bugs me about standing a parade here is that the watchers don't clap of wave and seem generally disinterested in being there. My lot scream their lungs out at everyone they can and clap, if people get off their ass to participate then the least we can do is clap as they pass. /rant. Saying that, it was a great turnout and the weather held for it.
