    Spent about 3 hours trying to loosen the engine oil filter in the Landcruiser. Broke a chain wrench in the process. Eventually got it with a C-clamp. First time doing it. Garage might be a better option next time.
    Off to Dublin in the Morning. Time to get the hang sanwiches and tae ready. C'mon the Banner!

    I'm asking was there a black stain on the tarmac after ya headed for home this evening?! ;) Or was all good?

    Just back from Croker. Great win. Felt sorry for Hannon. I think the occasion got to him and others on the Limerick team. Clare set up nicely now. Cork will be favourites, I'm sure.

    Ya. Hannon had a nightmare. Allen, didn't do him any favours by leaving him on the free taking!
    Think we have every chance against Cotk!

Poor girl was in an awful state until I came along:p. wasnt visibly hurt or just a bit of shock, pulled the car out and its ahide in my yard now.

    Billy never got a score in that all Ireland. Fairly sure he didn't even come on, but I may be wrong on that. Tom Dempsey was the scoring hero that day. The backs were the real stars though. It was the leinster final 1997 that Billy really exploded.

    One of those age old questions - how soon after spraying for rushes with MCPA can I let cattle back in? No noxious weeds to worry about by the way
