  1. Interesting and yet,, serving police officers are now getting adult diagnosis of adhd, still have their firearms ( psni) and now get a desk job and the " hr" brigade have ticked another box in their diversity employment!!!!!
  2. Ireland,,well to my dying day i will never understand why Murray thought it was a good idea to box kick a line out giving possession back that should have been forwards grinding out time! Po,m poor as he has been all tournament, he was going to retire after world cup and a bit like johneeeeey stayed a year to long,you must cull to evolve! the game it self was a bit odd hairem scarem at times eng vulnerable but signs of some progression but still unbalanced smyth will not be the saviour the commentary make out, but fair play they got the result!
  3. Never stopped,,,even found time on xmas eve!, best shape its ever been in at spring time!
  4. Its all building quite nicely for 16th march....🤞 Was at the match yesterday,,,ire were not tested, the pingpong kicking and raft of subs spoiled the second half and it became very disjointed, the welsh rush defence was so open for a chip over if ire had worked it out they would have romped away even more..all in all job done but lots more in tank, eng will be interesting in how they approach the game, spoil and bully and kick will play to ire power game,,will we see a change in approach are they capable of such change?
  5. He could be president in jail, it all depends on type of conviction thats as much as i know.....lol Edit,, yip hes good only stipulation is to be over 35!even if convicted/ been to jail unless it contravene 14th amendment which may if may not actually be a law...then it gets complicated!
  6. I think the more they throw the higher likelihood he will win i also firmly believe he would actually go to prison and still be president!...lol the establishment are petrified of him, remember its america first!, you make a dollar i make 2 but we all make money!!
  7. It was poor, irelands b team and lack of atmosphere, glad i gave my tickets away....lol not much to read from the game,but from the weekend ill go out on a limb and say its irelands championship to lose and i dont see where it will happen,, scotland may be tricky last game, but just currently Ireland have to much and a manager with a plan and players wanting to play for him!
  8. USA just had a record year of arms sales,, war pays/makes money and trump knows this, its simple america first,,scare more arms sales,more sales more jobs trump does what he says for the working man in the us.....money in your pocket...if we wernt so left of centre Britain would do the same!
  9. The difference is when most of us played players were "normal" size, skill speed running side steps, rugby thanks to those in charge is now thump bang wallop with backs the size of forwards, forwards who go head first into a line of knees, go watch some of the old vids on utube yes decapitation tackles..lol but the ball was thrown around kept alive out to backs and running rugby,different game entirely Laws are having to be made to counteract the size of the players for safety,the bunker review has now become the ref not making a decision ,some of the best refs consultations with touch judges discussing an incident even changing their mind are what made them respected, now review, the idea is good but overused for every red decision, sadly i can only see the game becoming more disjointed as a spectacle!
  10. Not when the add went up....😂😂
  11. My 2 spaniels are snoring the game is so poor.....😂
  12. Its clearly free,, so yes please....😄
  13. Not that bright would apply to the eng team they just never learn,, fords kick chesham again poor technique,, as a team they make same repeated mistakes game after game....coaching issue or just generally thick as.....??..lol
  14. Thought tmo got it correct, he couldn't be 100% you could not say that was def a try from tv angle, yes prob was grounded but 100% cd not be ceen, the ref had a great view he shd have stuck with his decision! Some turgid kicking rugby on display not a great watch! Great reffin at twickers!!😄👍👍
  15. Well having been in construction for last 32yrs myself and anyone else turning 50 can vouch that they will not be able or safe on a building site at 70, yet if i was in a "government job" id be looking at early packages in next few years,, instead of a new knee and sorting bad back,, so yea looking forward to my retirement that ill never see!
  16. Is the having your name on the shirt new thing this year?
  17. And were back, new year new selections but seemingly same outcome!! Genuinely surprised by how easy Ireland won tonight, some great rugby and the great( but shd have retired 2 yrs ago!) Johnnnnnnneeeeeeey not missed! Looking forward to seeing how the others set up with squad changes!
  18. Ive had an itch for a lathe.....only problem i know zero about them or even how to use them, but it would look cool in me shed....lol Good luck with sale!
  19. Im assuming this event will be naked accompanied by a certain sarah and witnessed by many mods, recorded for all posterity and under no threat of a ban posted for all the forum to bask in your glory!!😂
  20. Could it be the pension, the off shift private consolations at the local private facility, or the poor wages poor conditions poor me for choosing this career that is so bad for me,im so hard done by in life.....i find it very noticeable that the picket lines on tv are always full of young folks, clearly strugging to adopt the concept of work hard live within your means life is not a box of chocolate! I actually agree nhs staff need payed properly having worked at nhs facilities and witnessed the "staff" leaving like rats at 5pm to their nice cars while the workers ie nurses stay on shift its a top heavy over managed outdated inefficient model, if only someone would have the nuts to run it like a buisness!!
  21. Ive always said,i can pay a man a £1000 an hour to milk cows but dont expect to pay £2 a litre for it in the shop!! wages go up, costs go up,tax go up but you wont be any better off this is the vision of high wage economy!
  22. The best was when a junior doc union rep came on news 1 morning and said yes things are poor with ppl in corridors but we need our pay rise to be able to provide safe care,,so pay rise = safe and better care how? So your not providing safe care on your current wage...ummm??
  23. Lads, one of the best reading topics ive went through in ages,some clearly very knowledgeable people here explaining in a very simple manor, fair play!!
  24. Sitting waiting on all to arrive,,, cant wait, best day of year! Its a hunt today, fox drives woodcock, pigeons all family and friends as we go to cover pushing the red boys out to waiting guns, dont dare miss,,, cries of "winged it"..the excuses......lol the anticipation as the blackbirds fly out is there any better feeling on a crisp boxing morning!! To all those out enjoy the day,enjoy the company and raise a toast to those no longer here to come with us!
