I'm muffler. (dont ask about the name) Born, bred and buttered in the lower region of the Finn Valley and now located in the twin towns area.

Married, with kids and I also have a mortgage if anyone wants to pay it off.

Not going to say much about the occupation other than it is associated with property (kinda)

Paddy20 · 01-01-2006 4:58pm

I am me, Paddy20 a certified loony tunes, I should know as I certified myself after smoking some strange concoction at a party in London way back in the early 60's, hence the name Paddy20, as thats how old I was, way back then when everything seemed possible, and a new era of freedom dawned.

Now, I am trying to keep a 'low profile' in Ballybofey, where I let out my first scream after some bastard slapped my arse !, I was innocent then and I am innocent now.:eek:

P. :cool:

Well I'm Sin scéal eile originally from Co. Sligo (not too far from the Donegal/Leitrim border) currently living in Germany.

I'm constantly dreaming of moving back to the "old soil" which unfortunately isn't as easy as it sounds due to various circumstances, hoping to make it back home in two years.

I'm working for probaly one of the most hated companies in the world, but...

Carrickman · 10-01-2006 12:45pm

I used to head to Letterkenny every Thursday to the Grill (after a few in the Pin Tavren) back then as had a lot of friends in collage around that time, think they were first years.

Goodshape 'ere... 22 y/o.. my real name is pretty obvious from the various links in my sig

Born in Buncrana, Donegal; moved about a good bit throughout the years -- London, Galway, Dublin, back to Buncrana, over to Prague for a bit and currently in Dublin again with no real idea as to what to do with myself. Such is life

weeginger · 18-01-2006 10:14pm

Hey, weeginger, and believe it or not.. I'm short and a red head - predicible I know.

I just moved to and am still trying to get to grips with Letterkenny. Not the most welcoming place I've ever lived but I'm hoping it'll grow on me.

PlayGirl · 18-01-2006 10:22pm

PlayGirl here

.. born in galway, moved to dublin then up to buncrana!, its not so bad up here i suppose but its annoying the way everyone knows everyone in buncrana because its such a small town & rumors get spread around like nothing normal!, not saying that i'm completely innocent in that area! but hey, what can you do?? :rolleyes:

jimmycrackcorm · 19-01-2006 1:03am

Jimmycrackcorm exiled from East Donegal to West Dublin. Met a Dublin lassie and now I've a permanent city life sentence.

Oh how I salivate looking at the property prices at home thinking of what I could swop my Dublin dog house for. If only my other half could learn that you don't need an entry visa to move outside the M50.

smashey · 19-01-2006 1:21am

Smashey here. Born Lifford. Grew up. Moved away. Came back.

Hiya,
Im dandanthe, living in the Finn Valley area for the moment. Originally from Inishowen, North Donegal. Was married but thankfully retired from that situation (havent got the bill for it yet). Work for an american multinational that has a gate at the end of it.
Enjoy the banter on the boards and people who fall into the 'nuts' category. I think one can relate to them better.
