    We just found out we're having twins and that number made me break out in a rash. I'd be thinking two of them can have 10 friends each. And their parents will count as two of them.

    If their mother ever tries to arrange a party like that there's be a long weekend in London booked for me and me alone to coincide with it.

    Congratulations sir!

    May I suggest you name one awec?

    I have a twin brother but my parents craftily made sure we were always in the same class in school so our friends would overlap.

    Course if you have a boy and a girl you might be in trouble.

    I have two colleagues with twins. I think their experience can be summed up as : if it's girls, you'll be grand. If it's boys, you're f*cked!

    Congrats!

    Congrats Buer. The best names for twins I ever heard was in the States where a mother went shouting after her 2 boys....

    "Dale, Chip, get over here now!" :D

    Congrats Buer and best of luck!

    Zippy for the TV may I suggest this one I was staying in an apt through AirBnB and the guy had one of these on the wall the background lighting provided by the LED makes the picture unreal. It is quite smart and the colours will adapt based on what is being shown on screen

    Thanks, folks. Like f*cking buses they are: waited for a while for one and now...

    ... The bus is full and the driver won't let you on for a spin?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,003 ✭✭✭✭mfceiling


    25 in the class and no one refused.

    As emmet says, the rest are mostly my mates from the estate!!

    And there's a lad upstairs painting the hall...The brains of the house is herself who arranged this a month ago. So much noise...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,003 ✭✭✭✭mfceiling


    Sorry..manners...congrats Buer!!

    Boys wreck your house but girls wreck your head!!

    Now if you'll excuse me I'm going back in to sing and dance along to Taylor Swift ( I think?)

    I love that train...I love trains in general. I must be the only person who loves everything about the London underground..stations, the trains themselves, even down to the tiles (was the only tile I insisted on for my ensuite). Read a great article recently on the maglev (think it was the guardian app (best app on my phone )..how many more ((( ))) can I use in a post?
    I too love trains. You ever go on any of the RPSI steam trips? Draught guinness on old trains is the best!

    Underground isn't really trains though.

    I love trains too. Once spent a holiday going around Japan on the deadly bullet trains and then getting home by heading to Shanghai and getting trains the whole way home. Fancy Shanghai-Beijing overnighter and then the full week long tran Siberian (with a wee break in the middle). Then an old style overnighter to Petersburg. It was awesome, particularly the huge variety of trains we were on at times.

    Bloody northsiders multiplying like rabbits, we need to keep an eye on this sort of behaviour.

    I know the underground isn't really a train but I love it!!

    Watched a show recently about a guy who took photos of old steam trains. Herself laughing "he's so sad"...Me (mumbling) "Yeah"...secretly jealous.

    Never been on those. I kind of make a point of taking a few train journeys when I go on hols. Love to see the different styles and types of trains they have.

    Looking forward to this year's holiday...cinque terre in Italy. Only the first village can be accessed by car and then it's walk, boat or train...Therefore train. Probably will be touristy but what the hell.

    Gone home thank fcuk!! Only 1 injury as well which is a good result. Serious noise which is being cured via the medicinal properties of beer.
