Paddy hates to see another Irishman do well, they’ll do anything to knock him down. In Ireland if you are seen driving a nice car and doing well paddy thinks to himself “I’ll get that bastard” in England or America a normal person thinks “if I work hard someday I can be like him”

In her column, Jennifer O’Connell observes that the most visibly dysfunctional aspect of the “Oireachtas Golf Society (OGS) – or as I prefer to think of it, the Oh For God’s Sake (OFGS) dinner” – is how few women were there.

“We’re still absorbing the implications of the golf society dinner. But one thing is already perfectly clear. Boys’ clubs have no place in a modern, diverse society. It’s time to dismantle them.”

In the same paper yesterday Pat Leahy more or less made out the gold society to be a harmless old relic .

More women would should have been stupid enough to go?

How few women? So there were women? So it’s an open society. So women were free to join but didnt bother their diddies

Maybe women just don’t like golf. It’s hard to blame them.

Some women like golf but my experience has been that men who like golf don’t like women who like golf.
