The low traffic on TFK today really gives an insight into the character of posters-

@Horsebox[/USER] , [USER=182]@Bisto[/USER], [USER=1517]@carryharry[/USER] and [USER=1533]@glasagusban are sitting in their/someone’s house now with a load of slabs delighted with themselves and thinking they’ve mugged the world off by drinking on good Friday.
Myself, @Mac[/USER] , [USER=686]@Kinvara’s Passion[/USER] , [USER=110]@Fran[/USER] and [USER=80]@The Selfish Giant are sound cunts.
Ah Franno, what have you gone and done?? - Anyways, I find the pizzas in aldi are delightful for dressing up with your own ingredients and only €1.80 also- I gets the auld margherita and I puts serrano ham, olives and veggies on it, so I does. Extra cheese too.
Good to hear, mate… @TreatyStones[/USER] and [USER=332]@Julio Geordio wouldn’t have the balls to tuck into a Limerick ham toastie today, the roasters.
out around town there, passing pubs with people supping pints inside in them and I found myself repulsed by the sight of them, this time last year I would have been in there, how far I have come by proper nutrition, exercise, and spirituality
Well I got dragged to the family stations of the cross service this morning. It gets worse, she volunteered us to act out one of the scenes on the altar. My little one was Mary, the young fella had to pretend he was carrying the cross (two bits of plywood nailed together) and I had to pretend to be a soldier, and stand and point at his pal who was supposed to be the lad who got dragged out of the crowd to help carry it. We had to stand like this whilst the young one did a reading, which seemed to go on for an eternity. The whole thing was so ludicrous I was trying not to laugh, when I caught the big fat smiley head of a lad I was pinting with last night, and got an uncontrollable fit of the giggles. I was in hysterics, with half the parish looking on.
I then went to crossfit, and had a vegetarian lunch of homemade brown bread and smoked salmon, hardly a penance, and ill have a few more pints later.
The wife was explaining to the kids about how only rich people used eat meat, and how it was a symbol of penitence to eat like poor people, before saying that really, in this day and age, we should eat at macdonalds for the day instead.
I have done my bit and won’t be crossing the threshold of the church again this Easter I don’t think.
I used to fucking hate Easter week as a kid. The school would give you holidays, and the church would steal them back off you.

I went for a long walk up the mountains with one of bessers and his young son. Outside in the fresh air surrounded by nature, it was very life affirming. Not a good Friday but a great Friday so far.
