    Feckin owl screeching out in the garden.

    Shut up owl.:mad:

    It's some screech. I can here it here! Three of them calling each other. It's great to hear.
    Long eared owls. I stood outside for half an hour to listen to them and watch them move about.

    There'll be some screeching going on tomorrow!

    35,000 Wexford people will be at the match tomorrow. That's a quarter of the population of the county.

    I heard there's 1 Galway person supposed to be going.:p

    Was at a 2 year olds party in a play centre at 10 this morning. Mad stuff. The noise at that hour....

    Spent about 5 hours taking off a hydralic pipe on the mini digger, getting new one made and fitting it.
    Then treated myself to a new grease gun when the 500g cartridge screws into the end of the gun.

    Back to the office on Monday after almost 2 weeks off.

    That's one of those - 'why didn't I get one of them years ago' investments.

    Yes. But I bought one of them ends that grips the nipple so both hands can be on the grease gun about 1 year ago. And I went to fit it on and they are different tread patterns

    Just reading the Fat Kids thread over on After Hours.

    The discussion has turned to Breast milk v's milk formula.

    I'm very nearly tempted to way in with Teagasc's 3-2-1 rule.:D

    Ah no.
    I'd probably end up trying to convince em of the benefits and efficiency of double suckling or worse, asking if they prefer a herringbone over a rotary.:D

    How long do you have to do the farm diary for when doing the project on your home farm?

    Well the head shouldn't fall off this one like the wooden handle ones. Had a few near misses recently when the head fell off our old one

    Does some one to drive that machine come with it?

    I'll pass on the sledge, but I can't find the hatchet, I think they have one of them as well... will have a look tomorrow if I think of it...

    That's true, most timber handles don't last these days very long

    Strange seeing Galway wearing the white jersey

    Yes.

    Seems to be 2 different tread patterns


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,632 ✭✭✭✭Water John


    Well ganmo, Cork should have waved one before the start of the match in Killarney and not bothered coming out on the field. Same result.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,559 ✭✭✭pedigree 6


    I think it's fair to say at this stage.

    Well done Galway.

    Edit: record attendance for a Leinster Hurling Final in Croke Park. 60,032.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,239 ✭✭✭Willfarman


    Ah they were at a different level. 5 forwards that can score. Conor mac isn't good with a dead ball either. Disappointed...

    I was watching on the telly but it seemed that they had Galway in the first half and either Galway started to play in the second half or the fire went out of the team. Galway are a big team as well and able to catch the ball.

    We may start looking for a few Cooney's.

    The experience of Croke Park should stand to them though. We won't give up yet.
