    What is she on a scale out of 10 Urban?

    Rihanna is a rotten looking yolk. Minging.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,625 ✭✭✭✭Johner


    I don't understand how so many people like her. State of her forehead. If she wasn't famous and you walked by her you wouldn't pay any attention to her. I still would though.

    I like my meat white.

    She can't take a beating either, it'd be all over twitter and the cops would have me before I got to my car.

    JLH would get a serious hiding.

    It'd be off to ER within an hour or so.

    Lads. Advice needed.

    I took a serious kick in the fork today financially.

    I'm tempted to go all in with SOLE POWER on Saturday.

    Shall I cry and lick my wounds ?

    Shall I take my kicking ? Unlikely as I'm angry.

    Or is there a better £500 win option than sole power ?

    Never chase a kick in the fork. Deal with it man, you'll be on a rocky road if you lose it

    Good advice from ste, and Sole Power is a top class horse but he should probably have far more wins than he actually does


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,775 ✭✭✭✭Slattsy


    Take it on the chin. Thems the breaks and all that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,625 ✭✭✭✭Johner


    Sole Power would be a risky bet imo. Reckless Abandon is a huge danger. Did nothing wrong last year(Well apart from being a bit of a rogue but he could be top class)

    The ships well rocking.

    The sole power option was to recoup half of today's dent and I could take that kicking but very sore right now.

    Bad nights sleep ahead.

    Not uncommon to see a novice come on for it's first run. The experience did you well. Your a chaser in the making.

    See. I'm now just hearing - put it on Reckless Abandon at 3/1 instead.

    I'm Sole Power's biggest fan and have backed him for Saturday's race but no way would I advise anyone to go all in on him! As has been said, RA is a big danger and has a nice draw (5). Majority of previous winners have come from stall 5 down. Sole Power, on the other hand, has been drawn 11, second widest, and needs good ground.

    Steady the ship and wait till Saturday lad...you'll at least be sure what the going is and what comments trainers, respected posters on here give to build up confidence behind a selection. It's odds-on that there'll be a horse running somewhere across the cards that stands out a mile to you on Saturday and gives you a nice win.

    Should be punishable by severe beating

    Thanks jim. So RA is the bet if its on the soft side if good ?

    I don't have the faith in myself. A lot of you guys are streets ahead of me re picking 'good things'.

    I strongly fancied swift bounty - then Rossom picked him - and then the money came - and then I went a tad nuts.

    Biggest bet for a long long long time.

    The recent confidence in here recently about Farhh was spot on. That's the kind of confidence I need to see in here again maybe before I go nuts again.

    I'd rarely have ultimate confidence in a sprint with a draw bias to begin with. I'd never risk a maximum stake when draw and luck in running can play a part.

    RA has winning form on good-soft but none on good-firm as far as I can see. Sole Power is a speedball and loves a rattling pace on good-firm. I wouldn't advise anyone backing him if soft was in description. Although I respect that he's a massive threat, I wouldn't be keen to back Reckless Abandon first time out regardless of his ability. I'd prefer to watch him against a yardstick like Sole Power to see how he copes with his elders.

    Sole Power if ground remains good or better is only bet for me.

    Have you ever seen people write sh!te that

    a) must take them an age to figure out how to shorten to text speak
    b) is almost indecipherable to read

    I never get why people actually say "OMG" or "BTW". Saying "oh my god" has the exact same number of syllables as OMG while "by the way" actually has less than BTW

    ROTFL.

    Finally getting rid of Imagine WiMax & their rubbish Internet service. Ordered off eircom there, 2 weeks & I'll be able to watch sports, movies and assorted adult entertainment in high quality at high speeds. I'll be like Quagmire in family guy when he discovers there is porn on the Internet, I won't leave the house for 4 days, arrive out with a right arm like Popeye after spinach.... :)

    The broadband where I live is woeful. They said the fibre optics would be ready by the 22nd, now its delayed for another few months :rolleyes:

    Salesman was blatantly lying when I rang, says "your number isn't showing up as eligible for fibre now, but they're due to upgrade that area in, errrr, May or June." Really? It's May now, almost June. So will I just wait?? "Ah... Errr... No sure you're better off ordering now then you'll be a priority customer for upgrade..." Get up the yard, load of twaddle, my estate is full of auld wans who only hear about the Internet on the Joe Duffy show, no fcking way eircom will spend money upgrading the cabinet serving my estate to service the 3 houses that will use it properly any time too soon... Signed up anyway to their 8MB package, so worse case scenario I'll be getting at least 6 times better speeds than I have been getting....

    I mean, in this day and age, you've got to have a decent Internet speed. It's practically impossible to **** along with a slutty Filipino teenage girl on a cam site if you've got less than 1MB Internet speed. Or so I've heard.... :)
