You wouldn’t get past The Commons mate…
Like I said, it was a dream.
No-one in their right minds would go near the Commons. That place is as rough as tramps vomit.
Not too dissimilar to Callan in fairness…
We’re an altogether better class of tramp.
Ha Ha Ha, i’m happy out where i am dude, i’ve loads of friends in Australia, just sick of people going on websites constantly running down their own country.

[/quote]By the way you said living in Ireland is like living in misery, you should try living in North Korea dude.
I’ve yet to hear a North Korean say a bad word about the place.
How long did you spend in north Korea jimmy

I lived in North Korea until i was 7, escaped with my family and got refugee status in Ireland. If you think Ireland is a kip, try Morth Korea for a few years.
very similar places imho- both ravaged by a cruel empire on its doorstep and both inexplicably diuvided into 2
Ha Ha, true lad.

Perth police warn Irish immigrants about bad behaviour
Young Irish people visiting the Australian city of Perth are being warned about anti-social behaviour
Police in the Australian city of Perth have enlisted the help of GAA clubs to help combat bad behaviour among young Irish immigrants.
An email sent by St Finbarr’s GAC to its members said police were “extremely unhappy and appalled by the anti-social behaviour which is taking place all too often on the streets and in the pubs across Perth and its suburbs”.
It said Western Australia Police had told them they would be visiting clubs in the city to “get the message across to all Irish in Perth that what has been going on is just not acceptable, and if it continues there will be consequences”.
“If individuals don’t abide by the law, and take heed of move on notices, their visas will firstly be investigated, before court action, meaning that deportation would be the final conclusion,” it added.
The club urged its members to “spread the work to your fellow Irish, as this is affecting all of our reputations here not only the people who are causing the trouble”.
A police inspector said although there were reports that Irish visitors were involved in a disproportionate number of offences, they were “only one nationality in a number associated with the backpacker scene where further targeted activities are planned to increase awareness of local liquor licensing and criminal laws”.
Inspector Paul Steel told the West Australian newspaper: "It is clear that there are some significant differences in the policing of licensed premises in Australia to those in Ireland.
“In particular the liquor infringement and move on notices are not widely understood, and the purpose of the community level engagement was to target education at an area where this crime prevention advice was deemed appropriate.”
The email sent to St Finbarr’s members also said rental agencies were reluctant to let properties to Irish people “as they are getting destroyed during parties, and being left in terrible conditions once vacated”.
I blame Kev
a new low for the gga-exporting their gombeenism to my beautiful country
23 degrees in the evening shade here in Dublin, sun splitting the stones, and not living in a boring, culturally bereft, soulless shithole on an island 10,000 miles away, where everybody ends every sentence with a question mark? Living the dream.
That cop thing is outrageous. Talk about targeting the wrong people. The attitude to the irish from the cops and authorities in general here has turned sour and it’s very unfounded and a complete over the top reaction from a very corrupt system with a very narrow and dated view on irish people.
Weirdish story about your typical Aussie. I had car trouble last Sunday (burst a transmission hose) and had to push car off street. This Aussie lad helped me pull it in ( I have a big old vintage kingswood that’s not light). He liked the car and is a mechanic. Nice guy really helped me sort the hose and he gave me his number. We said we’d buy him a beer next weekend and thanks and I might pick his brains on the car blaa blaa blaa. My intention was to give him a text to meet up Sunday in Freo as I have games before that and won’t be boozing. Grand.
Yesterday I got this text " hey mate, what about that beer you were getting me, I’m free tomorrow evening after work".
WTF. Aussies in a little story, never let them help you out us one of the lessons I’ve learnt here, they all help so thst you can owe them one.
In fairness Kev, there’s Irish people who would do that too. Maybe not as common but it does happen. They tend to not have a lot of friends for some reason :strokechin:

Sounds like a friendly chap just looking to sip on some suds with a cork legend.
:strokechin: …am I the only one that sees nothing wrong with the mechanic in this story?
Pushy and gay are the 2 words that spring to mind
