Listen, never mind that nonsense and let's get onto more pressing matters.

Who actually puts lentils in a coddle?

Stand up!

Despite the accusation, I do not.

Am I the only one thats not sure what a lentil is?

I had a similar conversation having to ask what a wurly burger was in the chipper - glad I did before I ordered *bleurgh*

Who doesn't like a wurley burger?

If I start eating Philly's fitfood - how long before I can be expected to complete a marathon - few weeks?

I miss The News of the World and their ads for fat burning pills .. "lose weight while you sleep" or "think youself thin" ... it's a lot of bother having to answer the door for Phillys deliveries everyday ....

Does he have AOS in his back pocket every time he knocks ?

I just got mine. Choice of Upper Hogan or Lower Cusack available. I went for the Upper Hogan again. Great view.

Howya Flukey .. long time no see. Doesn't it bother you that as a long time season/parnell pass holder that when the big games come round that yer shafted into the gods .. I seem to remember you had a spot in around 324 last year ... I renewed as a terrace this year as it got a pain being nearly able to touch the rafters in The Cusack for the last 2 AI's ..

How are you too? I do drop in, but there are so many anti-Dublin threads here in the summer sometimes, that it is annoying. I still come here though and I am certainly going to matches. In the next few weeks, for the first time in months, my wife and kids will see me on a Sunday afternoon. Planning for next year is already happening though. Accommodation for the league game in Killarney is already booked.

I don't mind the upper decks. It gives a different perspective. It is good for seeing the positioning of players around the pitch for example, something that is much harder to see at the lower levels. It's a nice view of the ground and around the general area too. You can even see Parnell Park's floodlights, so it is nice to see our home. You can look down on the Hill in all its glory too. I'm delighted to be up there, as I was for the drawn game. It beats being stuck down in 334 or 335, where we have been for much of this year, trying to see down towards the other end, with all the idiots standing up in front of you. Mind you, that even happens in the upper decks. Sometimes you'd like if there were seatbelts on all the seats to stop people jumping up. Then we'd all be able to see.:)

I hope yer right on Killarney .. there seems to be some belief it'll be Tralee with it being Paddys weekend and all. GAA is year round for me at this stage, Juveniles take up Saturday & Sundays plus midweek as we're still involved in the Championship, thought I'd get this Sunday off but there's Dublin trials in Alfie Byrne Road :rolleyes:

It's only in the last few years I've realised I have a problem with heights - if there were seatbelts available in the upper stands I'd gladly take one. I was with a fella dying from a wedding the day before at last years AI, between the 2 of us we were limpets stuck to the hull of a boat in the seats

Be good to get back under the lights in Parnell for the restart of the SFC - it maybe then I appreciate the advantage of the stand ticket !
