I love that pretend story. One of my favs.

I’ve started lashing out sober recently. It gives the same level of satisfaction without the hangover

gilgamboa · February 23, 2018, 5:27pm

Hard luck buddy. Time for a new instructor Id say

gilgamboa · February 23, 2018, 5:29pm

Did you not get one in the amnesty in the early 80s?

maroonandwhite · February 23, 2018, 5:52pm

First timer here. Loughrea at 9am on a Saturday morning. Had to break for a tumbleweed.

Bandage do it in wexford you stupid cunt.

balbec · February 23, 2018, 6:21pm

No. That was 1979 the year of the Post Office strike. My brother got one that time.

Bandage · February 23, 2018, 6:24pm

There’s a chronic backlog at the moment. Personally, I’d be in favour of an amnesty.

balbec · February 23, 2018, 6:25pm

For professionals like you. Not for working class types.

Fagan_ODowd · February 23, 2018, 6:26pm

There is something very admirable about your persistence @Bandage

mickee321 · February 23, 2018, 6:28pm

ah that’s shite @Bandage about @briantinnion choosing excel over lunch but understandable in the circumstances

anyway
good pal of mine , his mrs. passed away today - only 35 - poor woman was ravaged from cancer, last time i met her was last october when i was forced to enter the musical chairs at the dunshaughlin harvest festival and the kids were running about… dont envy that man having to tell his daughter she wont see her mam again… fuck it anyway lads

One of the new lads at work didn’t pass his probation and was let go. Felt terrible sorry for him as he has a young family. Wasn’t myself for the day.

Tassotti · February 23, 2018, 7:11pm

he couldn’t cut the mustard, not your fault

iron_mike · February 23, 2018, 7:12pm

Absolutely the right decision but you know, sometimes you’d prefer if a lad was a detestable cunt. Makes it easier.

carryharry · February 23, 2018, 11:02pm

Sorry to hear that, aul pal.

Has not one of the cunts here offered to give you a helping hand?

I am offering my services whenever required, I hearby make a pledge to help you Pass That Test if you are willing to accept my offer.

gilgamboa · February 23, 2018, 11:04pm

Harry is the 2nd most helpful cunt on here

Brimmer_Bradley · February 23, 2018, 11:53pm

What can you say to that. Puts our issues into perspective really.
A lady I’d know in passing, would meet her the odd day and we’d have a bit of banter every so often lost her baby girl this week aged 17 months, I have met her along with her 4 and 6 year old boys. It’s knocked the good out of me.
A decent decent family, both first in to help out with any community stuff.
Why is life a horror show for nice people.

gilgamboa · February 24, 2018, 12:02am

We might know the same girl
Friend of my wifes. Woke up this am and their beautiful child had passed away during the night. Nobodys fault at alll. Child gone to dublin for post mortem

Literally every parent’s biggest nightmare

May they rip.

gilgamboa · February 24, 2018, 12:03am

Its no defence day to day brimmer

Brimmer_Bradley · February 24, 2018, 12:12am

Ah I’m gutted for these lads. Nice nice family. Everything you’d want your family to be. Donate and help with everything.
Kid was starting to walk and giggle and all that stuff.
Hope they’ll be tough and get through it as a family.

Fitzy · February 24, 2018, 1:13pm

You retired from hurling aged 12?
