Gambling, vaping, weed. Young lads are doing these every day. Their wallets and heads will be as fucked as their lungs.

3 young fellas dead in Greece in a few days. Horrendous stuff

Leaving cert holidays are a curse. Kids full of emotions after finishing leaving cert. Throw drink and drugs into the mix and you have the perfect storm. God help their families and friends.

I find this place is a terror for it. Iā€™ve most of the gambling/ horsey threads muted. But the main golf thread on here is called ā€˜Golf Bettingā€™, even though it isnā€™t always about betting and there are plenty of references to betting on corners and yellow cards in the various EPL Footix threads. It even comes up on the hurling ones.

As has been mentioned here before, youā€™d lose a lot of respect for the likes of Crouch who took the Paddy Power soup.

Itā€™s reported that the two lads from Michaelā€™s died in separate incidents?

Sounds like the first lad died in some sort of accident and the other lad reacted badly to it a few hours later.

Oh no ffs

I could be way off but thatā€™s what I got from reading between the lines of the report I read. Absolutely desperate incident regardless of what happened.

Hopper is out there. I sat him down and warned and warned him, but I bet those lads poor parents did the same. Itā€™s absolutely awful.

Itā€™s very sad. Mother a desperate alcoholic Iā€™d imagine. Probably perfectly decent off the drink. Hope she gets help.
