    Decent bands and solo artists. In the seventies there was the likes of Rory Gallagher and Horslips. Now we have Jedward. :(


    Jedward are musically awful, but they're a funny pair of lads.

    But there's still decent Irish musicians about the place. You might not have the time to discover them, but that doesn't mean that they don't exist!

    -to lighten up a bit. I'm a messer, always was, don't really have a serious bone in my body, and everywhere, Irish people look at me like I have two heads. I love the weather, nice and variable. Love the people mostly-nice and variable, hate all the red tape, hate how we run with every rule and regulation, hate the whole "joe Duffy, get the compo, screw the angles" attitude. Lighten up a bit, oh yeah, and drown Ray Darcy in a pool of Gay Byrnes p1ss.

    Uderlined sentences are supposed to highlight their importance, but for what ever reason, they seem to have the complete opposite effect with me.

    I just ignore or have blind spot for them.

    Possibly because they are really annoying.

    you must really love reading this then..in all its amazing pointlessness rambing going nowhere bollox

    Have you ever actually been to Brighton OP ?

    If we had a higher population density, all of the things OP mentioned could exist and be sustainable.

    We'd all be disease ridden and go sterile from sti's, so it would cancel out any population growth.

    Ireland is missing nice weather.
    And I really wish we had more drugs- medicinal ones.

    Where does one start;

    Skilled jobs and opportunities for young people
    Competent public services such as health and transport
    Decent weather
    Strong government

    etc

    An intolerance of mediocrity.

    The "ah sure tis grand" attitude is one of the things I hate about this country.

    (No offence to AhSureTisGrand) :D

    It sums up the spineless nature of the general population as a whole in my opinion.

    The weather

    Jobs

    An Intergrated transport system anywhere in the country


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,048 ✭✭✭✭Snowie


    Think, things like public transport are relitive to most countries.

    To let go of the some what americanised culture, that the kids seems to think is amazing...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 810 ✭✭✭Laisurg


    Jobs and being able to buy cannabis legally.

    The only thing Ireland is missing is higher mountains, proper snow and a slightly drier climate in the summer. Otherwise it's perfect in my eyes.

    Sitting by a lake in the sun, drinking reasonble quality coffee. Tow this beautiful green island a thousand miles south and it would be paradise most of the year.

    :rolleyes:

    Well if everything is perfect in your little world then it must be grand so, eh?

    What about the jobs crisis in the country?

    I take it doesn't affect you so why should you give a ****?

    Im sick and tired of the 'Im alright Jack' attitude thats prevalent in the country.
