    Somehow, 'The Surrey with the Fringe on Top' has got stuck in my head. The worst thing about it is that I don't know most of the words, so I've a constant loop of 'da da da da da da when I take you out in the surrey with the friiiiiiiinge on top' going round and round in my head. It was amusing at first, not so much now.

    I haven't a clue what this means?

    It's a song from the musical Oklahoma.

    It's a song from the musical Oklahoma (which I've never actually seen). It somehow got stuck in my head earlier, even though I don't know most of the words.

    It was very irritating at the time.

    :)

    Things must be pretty bad when your preferred politician owes us millions which we'll never see and likes to keep tax he takes from his employees.

    You couldn't be more mistaken. He epitomises all that is wrong with this country.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,833 ✭✭✭✭ThisRegard


    Oh yeah, he also has a penchant for threatening you with hitmen if you don't pay him, maybe revenue should try that option?

    Not my preferred politician at all.

    Poor gear reviews. I get that reviews have to be taken with a pinch of salt given the money involved but recently, it seems to be getting worse. Everything bit of gear that comes out is amazing and will you give the extra edge on race today.
    I read one today about socks.

    “Pros – colours definitely make you stand out from the crowd.
    “Cons: tight fitting socks.”

    Noticing there's a 10 mile race in Clontarf/Raheny on Easter Monday, after trawling the internet a few weeks ago and finding what I thought was the closest one in Clonakilty!

    I can find no redeeming feature at all regarding him, I actually turn off the radio or TV when he starts speaking, I think he has a downright cheeky pontificating to us when he himself is no better than a thief.

    No, was just looking at the race results on Precision timing and seen your name. Whats wrong with races they cant get the distance right these days, especially as you said everything else was great about the race??!!

    USB sticks are NOT waterproof and will not survive a washing machine cycle in a pair of jeans pocket.
