He took a turn for the worse then alright. A pity really.

Like a bride left at the altar. It leaves a mark.
Is that Melody, the teacher, in that photo? I’d know or have met 75% of the characters in that photo. The bottom right hand corner, I’ll have money, is one of the Gordon’s.
That’s brilliant. 
How prescient of admins to store this thread in Dunce’s Corner.

I was told by a Tipp man one night, not to mind my notions - ye Clare lads are only Galwaymen with shoes

Another simpleton from a west brit enclave who doesn’t understand place or meaning in the irish sense. Sad really but when you have no identity, as your many failed attempts to run with the sheep and fit in have shown, it must cause self loathing

You’re letting yourself down badly here. Why don’t you open a thread on the Yola people. That’ll make you feel better.
I walked up and down croagh patrick barefoot once. Not something I’ll ever repeat.
Wouldn’t be fantastic id imagine
“The soil is bare now, nor can foot feel being shod”. Gods Grandeur by Gerard Manley Hopkins.
One of the lines of poetry I remember from my school days.
I did it to see if I was hard enough. By the time I got to the top I realised I wasn’t, but had no choice but to walk back down again. Tis hard enough in boots as I realised the second time.
Your feet must have been torn to shreds? Barefoot walking on sand or soft ground, nothin like it
Shreds would be an apt description. I left plenty of bloody footprints. My brother thought it highly amusing, pointing out that even the Hardy oul bastards back in the day used bring their shoes up with them so they could put them on at the top. I’m incredulous at my stupidity tbh.

You’re such a dunce you didn’t even recognise the blatant contradiction between your two statements.
-
We’re not particularly interested in inter COUNTY hurling as we don’t pay any attention to COUNTY lines drawn up the Brits.
-
We instead focus on the Galway COUNTY championship and try to win the All Ireland club championship whose participants consist of the winners of the COUNTY championships which are based on lines drawn up by the Brits.
No need to lash out at me because you’ve made yourself look like a silly sausage.
