It annoys the f**k out of me when I hear men (and I am one) dictate how a woman should have to carry a child even if they don't want to.

So apologies Reggie if anything is uncalled for.[/QUOTE]

Mod snip, this debate is closed.

Telling someone else to do it.

I can imagine you now with the stick pointing out the jobs to be done.

Just watching 'The Great House Revival' on RTE 1.
It's about the restoration of a thatched cottage in leenan, co.Donegal.

It's amazing to think about the work that went on generations ago to improve the land up there between the sea and the mountains. The farmers carted loads of sand and seaweed from the beach to 'make' the land.
During the famine in 1846 money was even sent back as the rector wrote they had a surplus of grain due to the quality of the soil.

Google maps and earth is great!

Once you spot one 'improved ' area you can spot more.
Belmullet and around Claggan island in Mayo looks to be another such area improved by sand and seaweed from the beaches.

windy.com

or

weather

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.live.wea.widget.channel&hl=en

maybe not the smartest looking but usually accurate

Say my name · 28-05-2018 01:53PM

Another one for windy.com

There's the choice of 4 different weather models on it. So a more balanced view.

Then the short range rainfall model maps Aperge and Arome on theweatheroutlook.com just because a weather app may show no rainfall for your location but you can see the potential rainfall threat from the map.
Then the weather maps for a larger longerterm view.

Then the met office clips on YouTube.

All is not well in the camp I here. Something must be seriously wrong given the success of Moorfield in Leinster and the fact that 3 lads have AFL experience. Between that and Liverpool it was a WE to forget on the pitch:(

I think it's fair to say when the day comes when Leo steps down or is shoved out as is happens in politics that Simon Harris will be taking over.

Burning Tires · 29-05-2018 05:10AM

I can't say i miss these early mornings. Even if the weather is this good

He's a fair orator though and doesn't drag it out with waffle like some other politicians. He's got a fair brain on him too even if he does look like a 21 year old.

Gay Byrne was one of his plaudits after meeting him when he started first. I can see why now.

He's got a fair Wikipedia page too.

He's not your average pint swilling, back slapping, road to nowhere Irish politician.

Mary Lou is fair at what she does too forgetting about the politics aside.

Edit: it's coming from watching Claire Byrne Live

I didn't think he would last long at the start but he seems to be stuck in in fairness to him considering he has possibly the worst ministry in health

Could you explain a bit about new moons and weather changes and the moon on it's back and all that jazz?
Older people used to say stuff like that. Although my father is over 80 and he never talked about that stuff.
Maybe it's just tillage people or older tillage people?
I won't ask your age (:D) but anyway can you explain a bit of this moon talk?
