    Sadly the weather right now looks like it could ruin it.

    Yeah it's a shame. They'll get play at some point in the 5 days but disappointing that the first one is hampered

    Absolutely no interest in supporting a 'British' game.

    A guy in Chicago put in a change of address form to the post office, re-directing all UPS's corporate mail to his own apartment. It wasn't spotted for three months. :D

    Frankie Sheehan gave a good interview on RTE's "The Business" this morning. Even came clean and admitted that his mum is a Dub!

    Austria best song at the Eurovision
    Won't win but best song

    It's funny, you get an idea of what someone is like from their posts on boards, and you think, "yeah, he's cool", or "she's sound". Then they make it clear they watch the eurovision and you're like "WTF!"

    :p

    I can think of about a million things I'd rather be doing on a Saturday night! Yet with a teething baby and a pregnant wife, here I am not drinking pints of Guinness and sat at home trying not to watch it...

    It's all about tactical planning! I recorded a Cure concert on Sky Arts last night which I've been watching for the past couple of hours. :D

    Cowboys and Aliens was on Channel 4.

    Oh I have loads of recordings I could watch. One of the side effects of pregnancy, however, is the right to the remote control, apparently... ;)

    Gerry McBride of Waterford Whispers fame with a great tweet after the Eurovision last night...

    There won't be a Palestinian smashed in the face with a rifle butt for a fortnight.

    Take a bow Gerry.

    Mayo in front of goal. Diiiiiiiiire.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,801 ✭✭✭OldRio


    I dozed off the second half.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,047 ✭✭✭Bazzo


    Jaysus I used to think the Galway races were wild but I've just seen a couple videos of absolute carnage at Goodwood and the Ascot. Mass brawls with people beating the living ****e out of each other. One of a lad being kicked in the head so forefully can't be anything less then attempted murder.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,041 ✭✭✭✭mfceiling


    So is it Laurel or Yanny?

    Laurel for me.

    That because you're ancient


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,041 ✭✭✭✭mfceiling


    Well I'll tell you what I can hear...

    That ginger whinger belting out his beige shìte. Fcuking neighbours standing outside their houses all smiling at each other, ears cocked to the sky.
    Lad that lives opposite me was there (must be at least 35) when I went out to leave out my bin.

    "That's Ed Sheeran"

    "Yeah....shìte isn't he?"

    Blank stare and a mumble.

    "Good night so".

    Yep...same in this house. 2 daughters and herself hear Yanny. Me and the youngest hear Laurel.

    Ah jesus, I remember going to a conference a few years ago and every second presentation was about that fecking dress. Looks like we now have a new popular phenomenon to waste various disciplines of science's time.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,967 ✭✭✭Synode


    So I've had a few glasses of wine and now all I hear is yanny. Screw this

    So it’s true, drinking wine does make you a woman.

    I'm giving you a standing ovation sir. Good man.

    Rumour has it that he is going to make a guest appearance at the Stones tonight. Hope he doesn't ruin one of their good songs.
