Abortion Referendum Thread

From talking to our Gyne/GP with our third, they offer (or at least in our case, make you aware of its existence) this test (the Harmony test, I think its called) earlier depending on the age of the Mum. Apparently, women over 35 are termed ā€˜geriatricā€™ mothers (to say that Mrs sod was highly offended when she heard this is an understatement). She was offered it on our third but not the previous two, as she was under 35 when getting pregnant with the first two.

Edit, with a 75% (as written here earlier) accuracy rate, the nuchal fold scan will miss 1 in 4. The Harmony test is accurate, according to a point made by Rhona Mahoney, I think its 99.5% accurate, however, the more its performed, the more false results will be got - 5 in a thousand, 50 in 10000 and 5000 in a million

Wow! @HBV is pro-repeal!

Welcome aboard, buddy!

I didnā€™t think so. What you have liked him to ask that he didnā€™t?

Mrs. Fran had unofficial scans pre 12 weeks as she has access to the equipment through her work

I got two polling cards,for two different parishes, can I vote twice, what would happen if I did, and can I get caught.

Not that I know, save your own conscience

The referendum would be declared null and void and weā€™d have to have another one.

Oh Christ no. Iā€™d rather sit through the Eurovision again

I thought you had morals and that was the whole basis of your no vote ā€¦

What would Jesus do?

He would put a weekā€™s wages on limerick to bate that crowd on Sunday .

We should have a competition for a ā€œthat never happened storyā€ of our own and the winner can nominate a poster of their choice to post it on Facebook.

@Sidney, the stage is yours

Woolie was always an annoying prick but heā€™s coming across as a real cunt on twitter, the mask is slipping

Thankfully, I neither require nor crave your respect. I hope you take offence.

I was out canvassing for Yes the other night and knocked on the local deaconā€™s door. Heā€™d left his laptop in the kitchen and from the front door I could see in the distance there was porn playing on it.

I said to him, Iā€™ll leave you to it, Deacon Blue Movie.

I thought this was quite good ā€¦

He comes across as a self-righteous prick in the comments, which is a pity because he made a good point at the start.
