Re: SNIPE WATSON
OMG. So sorry to hear of Dave's passing. Many times over the years I had great discussions with him on here and the only thing I regret is that I didn't manage to meet him in person. RIP Dave.

Re: Semi Final Edinburgh v Ulster Sat Sep 5 7:35pm
Great win for Ulster and even better because it looked unlikely through much of the game.
Madigan showing his balls of steel. Happy for him to be able to show again his high class kicking under pressure. I'd say he'd love a chance to do something similar in the final.

Re: Munster 2019/20
That was a tough watch. It was always going to be an uphill battle to beat Leinster and Munster made it harder with so many silly errors. JJ may have an impressive goal kicking record for the season but he remains a guy you could not trust in a high pressure situation. The only thing worse than the ...

Re: What makes you happy
I see Fleggory is at it again. Yesterday, Mr Campbell referred to a programme on BBC Northern Ireland about a suspected German spy who had lived in Donegal during the Second World War, and was reported to have spoken Irish with a German accent. "I vill not be tempted to ask vot is dis curried y...

Good on you Mike for this thread but would phonetic spellings accompanying the Irish be a possibility? I'm sure I can make a fair stab at pronouncing 'stampa'. Not so confident about 'dleacht'.

Rum - I'm not Trump bashing. I am talking about the U.S and its attitudes. It is quite content to allocate hundreds of billions into arms, and that is the primary reason why U.S Tax Rates have risen over the last century, but cannot or rather will not re-deploy some of that spending into more worthw...

So good it was worth posting twice. Baggy like but with more sanity. I'm sure Rum will be along to tell you everything is OK because Her Maj is still cloaking all her subjects in her royal protective blanket.
