    I didn't see the Liverpool game but from what I've seen online the last 11 minutes were far from paint drying. It's the most exciting title race in years.

    I was on the way down to cork from Dublin today on the motorway. I saw 7 souped up cars pulled in by the cops at different points. To the cops, it was like shooting fish in a barrel

    I know I was worried would she stand but when I tried to stand her, up she got and off course being the quitest cow I have made for me. I knew by her she'd be flighty so over the gate with me. I can move when I have to.

    28 days I think from memory. But as Reggie said, if your rushes are long it's hard to spot them all :-)

    I think it 21 days , but sure cant you just match up the dates to have him around that age anyhow . If you register him now online and apply for a movement permit online straight away think will it let you do it with the rest . It would only be a matter of waiting a few day for the card then

    i think you have 21 days to tag and then the 7 days extra for reg, 28 days is stuck in my mind for some reason

    What drives me mad is being directed out of your own gate by travelling salesmen. A woman is no good to them. Happened me last wknd and i pulled up in the gateway to ask them what they wanted. Replied that himself was lookin for a nut cracker! Told them he wouldn't be back til late. When they were gone i locked the gate. if i ever win lottery going to get electric gates!
