Contractor gave me the use of MF398 today to draw in bales. He'll have to pry it from my cold dead hands when he wants it back

My dads hilarious-he bought up the bobcat for the square bales. It was actually the handiest thing ever-I can only lift two to three ranks but this was great as could pop bales on the bucket and she lifted them for me. Saved my back. The amount of uses he has put that bobcat to is insane. He's like a little kid when he finds a new use thou which makes me laugh.

Well done to the Lilywhites

I was at seafest in the docks in Galway there for awhile. I thought it was a great event and mostly free. Fair play to Reggies buddies in the army. They had stuff on show and were very kid friendly letting them into the gear and chatting

Reggie was in Dublin for the army’s other parade duties today

Is it safe to pour concrete in this heat? Will it cure away alright?

I heard he was the chief leading the parade withheld ass cut out of his trousers

What a day to be a kildare man

I always taught when the game was in Newbridge that Kildare had a great chance. I said it during the week to a few lads that if Kildare stuck with Mayo and were withing 2-3 points with 10 minutes to go that they would win. Mayo had lost Parsons and Seamus O Se. I felt that Aidan O Se would be jacked with 15-20 minutes to go especially with the heat. I did not see the game and was unable to listen to it on radio. But I imagine that midfield was the key to there success

While Kildare had a poor Leinster championship and picked up no points in the League. The only lost to Monoghan, Tyrone and Donegal by 1-2 points. they had 4 away games in the League I think and Tyrone and Monoghan were two of them. When Kerrys' form started to dip in the League they had to go down to play them but lost by 5 points and they had to go to Salthill where they lost again by about 5 points to Galway.

The Super 8's if they make it may well bring them on . CON is not a bad coach just had a poor run of luck since he took them over. They will not fear any of the for provincal losers. While they might struggle in the S8's I do not think they will be steamrolled either, Kerry and Dublin are the only teams that they would fear there if they get there.

Is this a patron saint or just a weird statue?

Might be Saint Isidor the farmer I think.

Cork fans behind the goal in Thurles are some knob jockeys.

I went to have a snooze there and when I pulled back the blankets there was a small lizard on the pillow! The youngest lad is always playing tricks with his plastic lizards so I picked him up but he wriggled like mad, I thought this is the most lifelike one yet. Dropped it on the floor and he scurried under the bed, it was a real one.
Can't find him now , I suppose that's what we get for leaving the doors open all day for the last couple of weeks

You should have licked him, got the cure of the burn!!
Helicopter arrived here to take the chappie away.
