Limerick will get the gig. It is to be the grand unveiling of Adare Manor and golf course with a pro-am, and a lead-in to Ryder 2026.
I think it will work in their favour. Is it an Irish panel or international panel of judges ?
That shows Limerick can handle the heat. We are going to do it.
Not sure, but there would be a bigger geographical impact with the 3 ugly sisters.
International I’m sure.
We will have it in time to celebrate the three in a row Daly will have led us to… …in our fuck
There are many ways to define a 3 in a row. Perhaps 3 defeats in a row to chipp or klare
Fierce activity around the town this morning.
Not sure how much of a crowd they will able to attract to events at 2pm of a Tuesday though.
The regular Wednesday food market is on today down by the boardwalk and there is something being set up in Arthurs Quay park. A street party also taking place up around the top of O’Connell St.
What a load of cock.
Fuck Galway and their shitty Viking Clap.
Mood in Limerick- pensive.
TBH, I don’t think Galway can fit this mickey mouse event into our busy cultural event calendar. Take it away to fuck lads.
The set up in the Crescent seems interesting, getting underway at 1230, theres a crane which appears to be set up for an acrobatics display, town is quiet, once again Brown Thomas is the only thing that appears to be doing more than just existing in the City. This will be a great thing if we get it, time for somebody to produce the brown envelopes.
You can get a lovely work shirt in brown Thomas.
You can get anything you want I’m sure, but I’m not getting your reference if there is one.
We need to get @Brimmer_Bradley and @anon67715551 involved. Both highly skilled in “influencing” people. Plus boxty could bang out a few tunes on the box to wow the judges.
What events are we taking in today lads?

and performers will take to the streets of Limerick bringing their energy and talent to the city centre.
The Mrs works in town and was saying a few of the homeless characters she’d see around aren’t about today. Wonder were they cleared off.
She texted that ‘not even Tom is around today’. Tom should be fucking front and centre for this cultural exhibition.
Tom has had his day… like Giles, he’s to fuck off out of it…neither have bothered their bollox for 20 years now.
We need to treasure cultural gems like Tom while they are still here, instead of oversized furniture and hipsters with mustaches serving chips in a flower pot.
