    Not really for me either. 75€ a seat and food I can't pronounce.
    When I wear a suit- I look like a tall pat short.

    I was worried all the way through the match. I had a pain in my stomach nearly all the way through.

    Woohoo.

    You should look over on the Kilkenny forum on boards.
    They seem to think Kilkenny is finished.

    This is all new to me so some interesting reading ahead.

    Scottish planters in my own heritage, although we don't speak of that too much !

    Just home from the park. Chin is some athlete. That catch alone was worth the admission fee. Only downside to this is that it could be a long time before I hurl a club championship match as the boys will be in cotton wool until 2 July.

    I see Old Ross church mentioned in that.

    There was some anniversary service in the church there and the mother and father were at it and the German ambassador was at it too.

    I heard a different story about the palatines coming to Ireland.
    The queen or king of England at the time said they'd look after them and the call went out to Germany that they would all be settled in the new settlements in America and given a house and land. They all were waiting in London then ready to go to America and something happened then only half were shipped out to America. I think the funds ran out or government wouldn't give the crown more money or more turned up than they thought would. It was something along those lines.
    So they had all these german speaking palatines in London and didn't know what to do with them. So they told the Irish landlords that they would pay them if they took in the families. Some landlords in the country took them in and I think the payments from England never turned up. So they renaged on that too.
    So you can imagine how some of the palatines felt being shifted around and it not turning out like they were promised in the first place.

    Neither. Fairly casual in our place. Mostly polos as I work in a workshop.

    Disgrace that this wasn't on RTE tv. It's a bloody amateur game at the end of the day. I sat in the jeep listening to it on the radio. GAA selling it's soul.

    It's like all the money they pumped into Dublins underage set-up in fear of losing it to rugby/soccer while the rest of the country falls to the way side other than the odd strong-hold. Going back a good while now at secondary in The good counsel college in New Ross(Gaa mad) the dublin team were essentially the county team amalgamated as 'Dublin schools'.

    Ya 4 o clock this evening. Suited grand to have all day to tidy up a few bits and pieces.
    Your man is farming himself. Milking and sucklers so probably suited him as much as much as me.Knew there wouldn't be a problem but you'd be nervous all the same.

    I reckon if my dad was alive- he'd have an iPad checking the stars of the cattle.

    The the hurling- Davy brings something to every camp but what? Interesting to see how Wexford will do this year and in three years?

    Controversy mostly :D They are in the honeymoon period now but it will all end in tears yet. What's the odds we end up playing the wexicans before the year is out?
