If he comes off the line and saves it, it can be retaken. Once it happens then he'll be more conscious of stepping off the line next time. I've seen it in soccer a few times, it can become a bit of a farce the very odd occasion but most times it works.
No, none yet. It was well into April last year before they arrived here. The house martins came first and the swallows arrived about a week later.
There was the farcical situation in hurling a few years where the penalty taker was lifting the ball as far in as he could and the goalie was racing out to meet him, they tidied up the rules and behaviour around that since.
Lucky not to have someone hurt with that crack. It was the Cork goalie, Anthony Nash that started it.
Jesus, this clock change has me driven demented, half dark this morning , going all day, I'd took a nap while ago and I've woken up and only for knowing which way my house was turned, I nearly thought it was morning time again...
I hope you never have to travel abroad or you will collapse
Yes we have a few nearing.
was eaten alive this evening by midges.
Asked one of the kids to change the time on the clock in the kitchen, simple move forward an hour. They mixed up the small and big hands, too used to technology and digital times
Agree. Not sure what the fuss is. Its one hour, there's 24 of them in a day. a 4% change. Miniature in terms of shift working or international travel.
Surely that’s a story for the day that’s in it, there’s hardly too many could be that delicate about losing an hours sleep!?
What do you do any night you’re out socialising and get maybe 3 or 4 hours less sleep than you’re used to? You must stay in the bed for a week after it!!
Thats different though, there's nobody gaslighting you telling it's a different time than it actually is. All bets are off now, I'm up waiting for a contrary cow to calve, the morning will either kill me or cure me...
I saw this JD 2130 on DD, any feedback on these old machines ?? Might be a handy sized 4wd for a small farm.
If protected Urea is spread for 1st cut, would you still work off 2 units per day like ordinary Urea?
Yes
Someone had a ragwort fork up here one time, are they any good?
Good tool to be using now when spotting little rosettes.

You mean a ragwort grape😁
Gets coat......
Just saw an advertisement for silage bales to be sold after a dairy herd mart clearance tomorrow . I'd say the herd and bales are from different places.
The picture of the bales. I pity who'd be forced in themselves to buy them. The softest looking bales in, it looks like slurry.
2024 how are ye..

Fine gael will rue Coveneys departure, a very good interviewee and a worker, I had a lot of respect for him.
Discuss 😁
Discuss. They're finished as a party. It's become a south Dublin party of weak candidates that do everything for the green party.
Verona Murphy and her coalition of independants will walk it in this part of the country getting all the former FG and possibly FF voters. May even take SF voters too.
I would not be a FG supporter, I can Hardly remember when he was minister of AG. But I always taught he was a fair and safe type of politician. Never rocked the boat. FG are totally after Imploding, the amount of high profile TDs that have left.
Now did he go before he got the sack I wonder, or was he too genuine for his leftie cabinet table.
Or Maybe the old timer FG members can't stand anymore of the green trash. Imagine if they pass the hate law, if you say a man in a dress is a man, you can end up in imprisonment
I’d say he resigned following discussion with Harris. I’d say Harris wanted to freshen up the cabinet. Thought Coventry was a very good min of Ag. And also foreign affairs. I’d say he is burnt out. Hard to be a politician in this day an d age. There is no respect for them and it is constant abuse. It’s also full on 24/7 . People waiting to catch u out and out on social media.
He will do well in the business world. Good safe pair of hands
He was quiet lately, I'd agree he was tired , he always put a lot of energy into his portfolio.
There won't be a loss on him if he moves on
would they of been a better position now if the had of chosen him instead of Leo
Intelligent guy but after the last leadership contest I'd say it took wind out of his sails. He reminds me of Brian Lenihan ..always the bridesmaid.
The RTE thing didn't help.
He didn't have the balls or the work ethic to push Kenny out when he ended up second in the leadership and like all the Cabinet he no longer seems interested in the job or dealing with people.
Just noticed the pound of butter i opened this evening was paler than usual. Would this be due to the bad spring and lack of fresh grass in the cows diet compared to other years?
Dairy Manor Lidl brand butter.
He did very well during the Brexit negotiations. Was calm and didn't take the bait from the DUP and Tory. Stuck to his guns, very calm and polite, no bullsh1t, just told them this is the reality of the situation they made for themselves.
I agree I thought he was outstanding during all them ridiculous antics in the North and in London with the rubbish they thought they could get away with I think Leo and himself will get a lot of credit . For the negotiations around brexit........now possibly a big part of it was they looked half sane in comparison to the dumpster fire 🔥 standing beside them 😄
