senordingdong · 30-09-2009 3:37pm

And make sure you all watch to see if Tommy takes his hits.

Stercus Accidit · 30-09-2009 3:43pm

Remember, at 6:00 there will be the angelus, anyone who doesn't stare blankly into space for the full 60 seconds is a traitor, I don't care if you are driving or chopping vegebles, you will NOT pay attention to what you are doing.

Hope its a sensible piece, is there an online player?

Wayhey! finally a reason to watch that horrible boring news. I usually switch off after counting the Bongs.

RTE archive the news programmes online (most of their programmes actually) so you can watch it later when you get to a nazi-free computer

Don't watch it Tommy - your arse DOES look big on TV!!:eek:

gungun · 30-09-2009 6:30pm

good stuff it shows some lads running about the place shooting,
say airsoft is an emerging sport, imitation guns fireing plastic pellets,
talk to Noel about how he got into it and that he said he'd give a go at opening a business

kdouglas · 30-09-2009 9:06pm

Looks good, fair play to all involved.

TheDoc · 30-09-2009 11:13pm

Good stuff nice to see

Mervenut · 01-10-2009 10:41am

Well done to all concerned, a good positive piece!

ricka · 01-10-2009 3:39pm

Nice one Noel.Hope you see the results at the till!

By the way need a bit of blockwork doing if your up for a nixer...:D

Hivemind187 · 01-10-2009 3:53pm

Nifty. Well done.

padmundo · 01-10-2009 4:13pm

On the main RTE news page... the image used for the piece alone gets your interest up. I saw the piece there on the news page. The caption mentions people changing their careers and the image is an airsofter with an M249.

http://www.rte.ie/news/

Anyone not familiar with Airsoft is thinking WTF, they've joined the army. Good short piece.

Alright thanx mate, again...that is what i meant soory for the unclear question..

iceage · 01-10-2009 8:59pm

Very well done that man, looked good, came across well, the sport mentioned as a up and coming thing and not a bad word said....Lets not forget the young ones!! They all seemed to be having a ball:)

I reckon they were a few older ones there as well! Great piece lads, pat on the back.

Tommyboy71 · 01-10-2009 10:12pm

Finally got to see it. Turned out well.

@iceage. The young lads were well into the skirmish, but the site is on a hill and soon had this auld git walking back up the hill to respawn. Noel on the otherhand sat in a trench having what I called his "Hollywood shots" done with the 249.

Nice piece, congrats.
