The Daddy Thread

The English have no respect for hurleys

Two English lads ran Ireland for 800 years with hurleys.

Not as big of a cry as the lad will have this evening trying to pull sweaty socks out of the blisters on his feet :sob::sob:

Good for him though. Would there be the same culture of summer jobs for teens over in didabury

Did they live consecutively, or concurrently? 400, let alone 800, is a good innings.

We donā€™t know. Paddy was afraid to look up in case heā€™d get a belt of the Hurley.

Fierce needy altogether

Banded or unbanded?

Fair play. Will do the lad good. Better to be getting a bit of life experience than pricking around on the Xbox or the phone for the holidays.

I reckon Flatty is the top top dad on the forum. A few lads could learn a lot from him.

Heā€™s well up there.

If it was down to sheer quantity, yourself and @Locke would be top of the pops

Eh, you havenā€™t met @Rintintin so.

Only at Christmas

Heā€™s got a right litter.

I remember in London the first summer we were told we couldnā€™t come back to work without toecaps. Weā€™d no money but found a pair for nine quid in the army surplus store. I lasted three days in them, feet cut to ribbons, then found a pair of black plasticy type soft boots in a second hand shop and went in them and no more said.
Iā€™d to take my shoes off in the pub for a few days my feet were so sore til some hairy arse cockney ganger told me to put my fackin shoes back on as the smell was spoiling his pint. The queenā€™s head in Stratford. Rough as fuck back then.

You forgot to block out his face there. Heā€™s the image of the mother.

Youā€™d be pissed off if youā€™d her as a mother and ended up looking like me.
