    ‘Twas an absolute beaut of a strike. Striking a ball like that is technically very difficult.

    I suppose you could say Nacho with ease.

    Or Ulster.

    I was going to say or Connacht but of course they don't have any Private schools.

    Do they even have secondary schools in Connacht?  I thought they all just started working on farms once they reached 11 years old.
    If you look closely in some of the hedges, you will see the secondary school students.

    Instead of making their confirmation, kids in Connacht on their 12th birthday hold a ceremony called 'Eating the Turnip of Knowledge'.

    After taking a bite If they can successfully point out Eyre Square on a map of Eyre Square they get to go straight to NUIG to study Tractor maintenance.

    And once there they all get the student grant so they can get beered up and head to Supermacs, where they can order curry cheese chips from the UCD arts graduates...

    Depends on situation. If you've kids and they're too small to really do anything themselves, then I'd say it's nice for something on their behalf.

    Otherwise, just chill and have a nice day together or send him down the pub.

    One of my mates knew the entire song. He would gladly perform it along with actions after a couple of jars. Sometimes I think the best writing in The Simpsons were their musical numbers.

    My lot persuaded me to treat them to a fancy lunch. They all seem to be enjoying the particular array of expensive desserts at the minute.

    Is it as bad as the trailer? Chase the trailer made it look awful
    We flipped a coin between Hereditary and JW:FK
    Thankfully we landed on Hereditary


    It's just a cliched mess from start to finish. You're better off watching the original again since all the sequels have been a rehash of that anyway. If you can switch off and enjoy seeing dinosaurs for the sake of dinosaurs, then have at it. I can't unfortunately. I can't watch any blockbusters these days it seems. I'm becoming a grumpy old man :pac:

    Is there anything more amusing then watching england in soccer tournaments. Tunisia look like a Sunday club side from the local village and their defence is hopeless but England squandering multiple chances then concede a lame penalty. Its really popcorn stuff.
