    Boast about anything you want to tell us about yourself that you feel particularly confident and/ or smug about yourself. No need to be humble. You know you're only waiting for an opportunity to show off and here it is, no intro necessary.

    Are you rich, beautiful, talented? Do you have some ace up your sleeve? What makes it class to be you?!!

    Ok, I am a Nobel Peace Prize winner!. (for real, but I share it with a lot of other people and I exagerate the truth).

    Oh yeah, I forgot about that!

    I don't ask questions like this.

    Oh so that's something you're boasting about? Didn't say you don't think things like that though. Hmmm. Don't really see what there is to boast about. But people are, apparently, proud of the oddest things.


    My boast, I have a fantastic boyfriend, I'm intelligent, and seemingly good looking.

    Thanks a mill Rasheed, the word on the street is that they make excellent Christmas presents as they are 100% cotton and are reasonably priced at 12euro for the bags and 22 for the womens v neck t-shirts. ;)

    P, if you make I love Roscommon t-shirt and I'll be your first customer!

    I can get a crf 450 into third before I run out of driveway.

    That'l probably mean fcuk all to anyone except a biker, or someone who measures driveways..

    I can do that too but usually right before I end up stuck up a tree:o

    I'm good with my hands and I'm a good judge of cattle and I make a lovely rhubarb tart.


    I have a fine pair of bullocks for you to judge seeing as you're good with your hands and all, you can check out my bullocks while I sample your tart... :D







    Wait a minute, aren't bullocks the bulls with NO balls? Back up there now fairly lively! :o

    I've a phd and multiple first author papers in high impact journals. My research makes people say "wow" and "oh my god that's incredible" quite a lot.

    I haven't 2 pennies to rub together at the minute because post doc funding hasn't been approved yet so have very little money coming in but I am making a difference to people's lives with some of the work I'm doing and that's priceless.

    And I make an amazing paella.

    Not really, I mean I'm thinking much less negative things about my appearance than a few years back, but don't think I'll ever think I'm good looking.

    That's nothing, not only am I a Nobel Prize winner I've won the Tour de France as many times as Lance Armstrong.

    I'm quite a talented writer and play guitar alright. I'm aiming for 585 points in the LC and can normally turn my hand to practically anything and be reasonably good at it. Nothing huge to boast of, but I'm reasonably happy.

    I think I've written this before on Boards but how and ever!

    Over 4 years ago I moved to Spain with only a suitcase of clothes and money I'd saved. I'd no job, no house, no friends, a very basic level in the lingo and I'd never visited Spain before that, so didn't even know I'd like the city I'd chosen to move to. I arrived in Madrid airport with only the name of some fella who might have had a room for me and 3 nights booked in a hostel. 4 years later, I have friends, a good level in the lingo, supporting myself with a fairly decent job that I'm good at and am living in an apartment in the centre of the city with someone who makes me very happy. I'd a huge amount of ups and downs on the way but I'm very proud of all I've achieved and the gamble I took, even if my achievement is just getting myself settled. Very proud that I stuck with it and didn't give up when things got hairy and I did it all on my own. :)

    My cock measures 9 inches.

    I'm a great mama. And I made a fu(king hilarious, gorgeous child. From scratch.
    I'm fairly intelligent.
    Not rolling in it by any means but there never a panic when bills come in the door.
    We bought a house in a great area at the *perfect* time, literally going to be thanking our lucky stars for that for the rest of our lives!

    I was giving CPR to a man who collapsed about a year ago , when the paramedics arrived I told them how many compressions and breaths Id given and went to hand him over for them to work on .
    They said carry on for a few moments more "you,re doing fine" ..... the man recovered .

    I also boxed in school and have a murderous
    left hook.... mrsMattjacks bro in law got a straightner for being a dick a few years ago.

    My girlfriend is from Sicily and lives with me in Dublin and has achieved the same as you. A great achievement all together, fair play.
