A fine lady.
Great spot, not for beginner swimmers though.
Went to Dromore at 4 o clock today. Beautiful until I got robbed at knife point.
:D:eek::D:eek:
Not sure if jokingâŚ
A real mixed day for you so.
Some cunt from pallas no doubt :D,one of the agâs maybe
Handiest âŹ100 I ever made
Really? Youâve obviously never drawn the dole.
Just back from dromoreâŚ
When you drive into pallas and see lads with socks above their tracksuits pants youâd wonder what is in the water down there.
They have some obsession with thinking they are city scobes, a lot of them even go around with the accent.
Thatâs Limerick City, Kid.

[SIZE=6]Lmerick based company signs 3 year deal with USA Football [/SIZE]
USA Football, the national governing body of the sport, has announced a three-year partnership with Limerick-based company Shadowman Sports. The Shadowman tackling system will be used at U.S. National Team events including Regional Development Camps, National Development Games and the International Bowl.

JP Hartigan - CEO at Shadowman Sports
JP Hartiganâs business Shadowman Sports began from a 4th year Final Year Project while studying Product Design and Technology at the University of Limerick. For his final year, he had to design and build a product to find out if it was commercially viable. The Limerick native and Garryowen player, created and manufactured a tackling system called Shadowman. Itâs an inflatable human-shaped dummy that fits into a ring, and is filled with water at the bottom to give it a low centre of gravity so it stays put when towed and detaches when tackled.
During his final year he decided to patent his product and the following year he joined the Limerick Enterprise Acceleration Programme. This gave him access to Enterprise Ireland Funding which allowed him to continue product and market development.

Shadowman Sports has designed the first, patented detachable mobile tackling systems that allow athletes to perform full-speed drills without player-to-player contact. USA Footballâs National Practice Guidelines for Youth Tackle Football recommends no more than 30 minutes per day of full contact. By performing drills against Shadowman, coaches can create practice plans that optimize full-speed drills without full contact.
Hartigan said, âUSA Football is responsible for creating the biggest national platform for youth education in Football and aligns with exactly what Shadowman is aiming to do, which is create a safer sports environment through preventive design. Together we will train players and educate coaches to play smarter, better and for longer.â
Shadowman Pro tackling systems are designed for ages 14 up to professional level, while Shadowman Junior tackling systems are designed for ages 6-14. Shadowman Pro and Junior provide more game-like reps than tackling bags or pads, designed with durable and specially selected Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) in order to withstand the rigors of any level of football practice. PVC provides high tear and tensile strength for Shadowman products with elastic properties that absorb energy on impact for better feedback during a tackle and also offers a longer product life.
âShadowman enables coaches to dedicate more time to teaching proper tackling technique without player-to-player contact,â USA Football Senior Director of Football Development Nick Inzerello said. âDoing so can develop athletes to become fundamentally sound tacklers while advancing player safety.â
