That was a nerve wrecking last 10 minutes. I thought the All Blacks would get back at us. What a super performance.

It's great to have the rugby back on again, we've a brilliant team now.....should be a great year

I says

Pity CTE will rob some of the players of the memories of this win in years to come.

Have never seen such an Irish performance, well done all round, they kept the all blacks looking like a b team.

The true shame is breathing oxygen will eventually get them all.

Their concept was to create an app that shows you how much single use plastic you purchased and then over a period of time reward you via points on how much you reduce your consumption......that’s my understanding anyway.

Some contrast between the soccer and rugby teams atm!!

Great win and on home soil as well. The victory in Chicago just didn't 'do it' for me for some reason.
I think it's a great game, tough etc, but the respect shown to penalty takers and respect to referee is exemplary. Can't see that happening in soccer.
Can't understand why the 'foreign sport' brigade (as some regard rugby) not put any weight in the fact that it is a 32 county all Ireland team, one country, one team.
Then maybe it's me is the b@!!@x

Id let a rattle at it anyway. Lots of scum profiling yards with them. A gunshot might tick the box to avoid your place. They wont want lead in the seat of their pants!!

It had gotten very overcast here in the evening but completely clear sky now. Something else in completely darkness to take in the night sky and the glory of all the stars.
I saw Saturn through a cheap telescope a few years ago but it was clear enough to see the rings and one moon.

I saw 2 full moons through the back window of the car in front of me at about 2am once without any telescope.:D

We went to the local to watch the rugby. We came home at half time. Very very lucky that we did as the aga was on fire. I had clothes on it drying. My fault. But so so lucky. Some fright. 5 minutes later the house would have been gone

Close call there !!

Has anyone put in a new aga or similar recently? How much are they. Damage to mine is only on the lids but it's getting old.

There’s a crowd in the north, they will take yours as a trade and supply new or refurbished cookers.

There you go, they offer reconditioning and all that. Bought two stoves of them when we were building, easy to deal with then.

I got a reconditioned Stanley when I was doing up the parents house a few years ago off them. They were sound to deal with. I can't remember the prices but I was happy with the trade in price they gave for the old one considering how wore out it was

Does anyone have cattle/calves off the Red Angus ZEP. I have a beautiful red heifer that is a pure torture. Her mother is like a lamb so is last year's heifer. She is like (sorry all Lim breeders!) the maddest of Limos. I took the opportunity to pour-on all this morning seeing as it was nice and dry and she tried to go through my and OH for a short cut a couple of times. Managed to dose her because she 'accidently' ran up the crush and the backing bar dropped behind her with the force she hit the end gate! Minute she is herd tested after Christmas she will be out the gate. I'm very disappointed as she was earmarked to keep.

Got the loan of a clippers for the calves. But wasn't told that the tension knob needs to be really tightened or it loosens itself. Spent bloody ages looking for this all around the silage & feeding area

Feckin Dunlops seem to last no time these days before they split. Need to order some alternatives so what's the better options out there? Muck Boots?

Had to patch them or I'd only be buying the exact same replacements tomorrow in the local farm store.

Watch it doesn't go on fire on a serious note, alway had a fire blanket beside my cooker. Used it last night. Smoke and carbon monoxide alarms all went off, we just weren't in the house.

Clippers have a tensioning screw which is encased by a spring that maintains the tension. I would have thought that you would have come across this with the horses.

I've only used them once or twice in my life Came across them with the horses all right but rarely was the one clipping. Plus if it's mechanical at all in form, it goes in one ear & out the other!

A bath towel. Also lost a super dry hoody, some running gear and a regatta coat. Could have been so much worse. Spent yesterday washing walls. Bought a new fire blanket too
