They’d be wrong really though.
Colour’s of current Sigerson Champs NUIG
Thanks mate.
The Port colours have an interesting* history actually
It’s the first time the club has played a competitive match at headquarters, but their distinctive jersey was once a regular sight there.
That wine-red geansaí with a green sash was once proudly worn by the players of the Hibernian Knights football club in Dublin who were formed in 1906 by a group of shop-assistants and bar-men working in the city.
Back then Croke Park was known as Jones Road, and it was the Knights’ home pitch until they disbanded in 1916.
Two Portarlington men, Pat and Peter Finlay, were involved with the club and it was thanks to this connection that Portarlinton came to borrow a set of jersies from the Hibernian Knights.
The Laois men must have liked the colours, because they quickly decided to adopt them as their own and have used them ever since.
*May not be remotely interesting to others.
For those of us who have types of colourblindness, the TFK logo in the corner looks just white. 
oh he’s made a right fool or hmiself…
St. James’ Galway are another
- I haven’t
- You may be simple, but an aesthete like myself doesn’t have to like maroon and green just because St James’ of Galway wear it, or am I missing something?
I’m eating a bar of dark chocolate that was sent in as a donation to the Ukrainians. It’s a day of out date so I dont want to risk their health

Shameful carry-on. Keep the wrapper - as sure as there’s shite in a goose Brenda’s b/f on the bookface will have a cuddly photo of the great efforts her Iarlaith and Máiréad made gathering this chocolate hamper. You can then unleash a counter-attack.
Savage stuff from her sending in chocolate (chawklit) that was out of date in a few days. Iarlaith and Mairead must do better
I haven’t listened to a new/previously unheard album in about 5 years.

I’ve been using ladies’ deodorant for the past 1-2 months after a Tesco online shopping order faux pas. I spotted a 2 for 1 Dove deodorant offer and ordered 6 for the price of 3, if my maths are correct. It was only when the order arrived that I realised my grave error. My life partner then said the brand/type irritates her skin so she didn’t want them. As a result, I’ve been using them ever since. I quite like the fragrance now and will probably buy them again.

I was rushing to my desk* at around 9.56am yesterday morning ahead of a 10am meeting with a bowl of porridge in one hand and my laptop in the other. I somehow let the bowl slip from my grasp and it fell onto the floor. It thankfully didn’t smash, as we have a soft play-mat on the floor but the porridge and chopped banana was strewn all over the ground/mat. I looked at my watch, concluded I wouldn’t have time to make another bowl of porridge before the meeting and proceeded to kneel down and eat the porridge and banana from the floor with my spoon.

I saw a fella trip coming out of a chipper once, drunk as a wheel, and watched his curry chip fly through the air and land on the back window of a Honda Accord. My man headed over, fork still in hand and picked away at it til there was nothing left but the sauce.

This is where the entire edifice of lies falls apart.
You could barely use a fork sober, you gulpin.
To quote a great great man
Had I a spoon? Had I?
