    You can see my frustration. A no Vote is a no vote Yes?

    It's democracy but not as we know it.

    I reckon if "no" won out, they'd make us hold another referendum, like last time.

    Nope. No second chances on this one, 'cos the rest of Europe will just move on without us, as a unanimous decision isn't needed.

    The way it is with me, I support the yes side because voting yes guarantees access to the ESM.
    But on the other hand, I'm wary about what changes the new French PM is going to make to it, really think we should have deferred the vote tbh. The govt's excuse was that we couldn't defer it so close, even though the opposition brought forward legislation which would have made it possible which the govt voted down.

    Enda's refusal to debate the issue on TV as well really pissed me off, so rather than vote No in anger I decided to just let it play out.

    My Dad went out fishing today. He hardly ever catches anything, and always comes back extremely frustrated. Before going out the door this morning, his exact words were: "If I don't get anything today, I'm never fishing again."

    5 hours later, he comes home with 80 mackerel. The lesson here kids: impulsive, bitter promises always have a happy ending.

    Do yourself a favour, and get on Youtube and watch what's left of Brian Adams at RockinRio (linked on Youtube homepage).

    He just brought a randomer from the audience to sing "When You'ter Gone" and it was just so epicly awesome.

    I'm sure most of it will be on YT eventually.

    Words can't describe how frickin' awesome it was. I'd forgotten how many absolute belters of songs he has.

    Such a brilliant performance as well, voice is still as amazing as ever. :)

    The electorate had changed it's mind, there was a majority appetite to vote again. It's democracy that takes into account people being stupid until the shít needs the fan and they realise we've needed the EU since we signed up to it, and have never have had an era of prosperity without it.

    What do you mean by this?

    The people (electorate) wanted to change their mind, as was evident in the result.

    Lads, on a serious note - what happened to the property tax?

    I would say the government let that furore settle for a bit so as to not piss people off before the referendum. The government will either try and get people to pay up through threatening letters and all that, which'll probably cost a good bit of what they made out of the tax anyway, or they'll try to find it somewhere no more pleasant.

    It was a terrible idea, mainly because it depended on people voluntarily paying it. That still doesn't mean people who can pay it shouldn't have. The government doesn't get money to pay my college fees, pay for your secondary education and whatever else most of us are probably entitled to on this forum from trees...

    Where do they find the presenters for Spin SW :pac:

    Totally Culchie like.... :rolleyes:

    I must of done something to my arm last night. so sore today just i cant even remember half the stuff i was doing :D . Truely a good night. probably get the hang over tomoro :confused: . Only I can pull off something that makes no sense what so ever.
    Every person I've met I've asked them what is Guinness like. Im dying to try it im just worried i wont like it. and it just could of been a bad pour. My friend will end up drinking it and i will be out of pocket. Thank god i'll never be fond of drink. Besides vodka. But thats not the point.

    Watch the Queens Jubilee. Something else ehy? Anyone got any chicken im dying for some but its too late to put on the fat fryer.

    Handed my first CV in today. It was kind of a interview and i know in my heart and soul i botched it up. I was the first interviewer. all i can do is pray! To something. :pac:

    Happy Sore arm day.... Back to SSW they are insane :pac:
