I'm muffler. (dont ask about the name) Born, bred and buttered in the lower region of the Finn Valley and now located in the twin towns area.

Married, with kids and I also have a mortgage if anyone wants to pay it off.

Not going to say much about the occupation other than it is associated with property (kinda)

I am me, Paddy20 a certified loony tunes, I should know as I certified myself after smoking some strange concoction at a party in London way back in the early 60's, hence the name Paddy20, as thats how old I was, way back then when everything seemed possible, and a new era of freedom dawned.

Now, I am trying to keep a 'low profile' in Ballybofey, where I let out my first scream after some bastard slapped my arse !, I was innocent then and I am innocent now.

I'm byte, rared and bred in Ballintra (which btw, now has ADSL broadband!) but living for the past 6 months in Letterkenny.

Still work in Donegal, in the electrical sector, so a long commute daily!

Well I'm Sin scéal eile originally from Co. Sligo (not too far from the Donegal/Leitrim border) currently living in Germany.

I'm constantly dreaming of moving back to the "old soil" which unfortunately isn't as easy as it sounds due to various circumstances, hoping to make it back home in two years.

I'm working for probaly one of the most hated companies in the world, but...

I used to head to Letterkenny every Thursday to the Grill (after a few in the Pin Tavren) back then as had a lot of friends in collage around that time, think they were first years.
