They should of had a couple of thousand kids in there. It would look a bit better.

Liz and Philip look like they enjoy chatting to the ordinary poor Irish!

I am big GAA fan and today is a day I taught I would never see. But I am delighted that the Queen has made this historic trip and goes to show Ireland has moved on from the dark days.

Apart from her making the appearance at Croker, that was wholly uneventful really.

they usually give us 12.

n.b. if Ireland is playing football against another foreign team , they usually support us....but who do the skangers support when its the other way around and England is playing a foreign team...?

Thought it was Ma'am coming for tea and a jam scone, but no, the Gaurds asking me to evacuate the building cause there might be a bomb in the street???

With the amount we got in grants / handouts / structural funds / common agricultural policies from the EEC / EC over 40 years, and the hundreds of billions we borrowed during the tiger years, it is kind of unusual to need the UK / IMF / EU to come to our rescue last NOV, when nobody else would lend us money anymore.

With respect, I think you've lost your train of thought

I hope Christy Cooneys breath is fresh.

Yep. Apart of the Greek royal family born on some Greek island and as a kid he was smuggled out of the country in a fruit box because of some sort of coup and they thought the family would be killed....

Oh God this is so weird. The Queen really seems out of place here

Will she be doing anything actually enjoyable during her visit?

After the Queen's visit to Guinness today i think it is the perfect opportunity for Murphy's to launch a new add

I'm feeling quite sorry for the old dear. She's 85 and she must be bored to tears half the time. "Oh great, a pipe* band..."

You think Ireland needs money continually from the UK?

Yeah, I think this is the last of these kinds of visits. Tomorrow I think the nice part of the visit begins for her.
