They must have some good road frontage so, if they can still pull the young ones. :pac:

buried

Errybody living in fear of burglaries and various degrees of piseog style witchcraft to try keep the burglars away.

Ubbquittious

Yellow drums of Calor gas everywhere

Falling apart cottages

Cars held together with bailer twine

A few lads walking down the side of the road with shotguns

Petrol pumps with no big huge ugly overhead square yoke

Shops with a ham slicer and feck all bright lights inside

Shops stuck to the pub stuck to the house of the lad running both businesses.

Cattle grates..though not so much anymore, what happened to them?

Some half finished celtic tiger style house with a big "Think safety" sign and "this is a building site, building stuff happens" safety notices stuck to a half falling down partially bent galvanised gate stuck into a rubber base at the entrance to it.

Some gates with "This is a farm, farm stuff happens, beware of cows eating grass" notice stuck to it.

Rusty cars and machines in a field that some fella was hoping to fix but never got around to

Pubs that are now closed because some greedy and or lazy fcuker sold the license so he could sit on his arse and do nothing for a few years.

Some bags filled with nappies horsed down by the side of the road by some other lazy fcuker or perhaps the same one

The odd thatched or galvanised roof on a house. The odd shed with a roundy galvanised roof and stone walls

Are Am Eye

Absolute poetry Ubbuiqqious.

A local TD on his way up to Dublin to put a fire under them jackeens and pull a stroke to get a road paved.

For Forks Sake

Supermacs.

A mass brawl outside of said Supermacs.

Yep, pheasant is delicious!

Things I see that confuse me. One lone cow in a field, how is that economically viable?

Purple Mountain

We have a pheasant who rambles in through the garden whenever it takes his fancy.
I managed to catch a photo of him once and sent it to a few friends with the caption "Dinner".
Got some unimpressed replies!

buried

Two middle aged ladies walking real fast on the hard shoulder, arms swinging like North Korean stormtroopers, half their heads looking at each other nattering away, the other half of their heads looking at who be in the cars going past looking at them

If you're out walking you salute every car,van,lorry,tractor that passes. If they salute back then they're grand country folk, if they don't then they're bloody townies.

That pheasant wouldn't last pissing time where I am with foxes, buzzards, kestrels, sparrowhawks and the ever present corvids. I've fond memories of my farming friends and family hanging the pheasant on the back of the (very cold) kitchen door.

The hunter must have hung it there to go and shoot more.

Minimum stocking levels for Single Farm Payment are quite low.

Loads of winter fuel neatly stacked at the side of the road, some are even nice enough to bag it!

I'd say if it's for human consumption it would be hung upside down.

pleas advice

You like pheasant don't you Father?
Well that's a clue because the thing you'll be eating likes pheasant too.
