Wear a short skirt bud. It worked for my sister.

flattythehurdler · February 24, 2018, 1:44pm

Ah that’s quite lovely

Two weeks ago, our swimming coach of 12 years, a thoroughly tough but thoroughly lovely northern lass, ex international swimmer and non smoker said she had a hospital appointment, and asked would I go with her.
Sat there as she was told she had lung cancer.

At 15. I added U14 and U16 county titles before the fateful retirement day. Did I ever mention we beat Oulart in the U16 county final in 1996 on the day Frankie Dettori rode all the winners at Ascot?

I’m on the train to Wexford at present as my life partner has a night out in Dublin with friends tonight so we couldn’t share driving duties:

Me - Apartment to Loughlinstown
Her - Loughlinstown to end of Gorey bypass
Me - End of Gorey bypass to Wexford town

A load of people walking against me on their way to the rubby as I made my way to Pearse Station. A load of fathers with young children. Awful stuff.

I wish I could give that an informative rating pal.
Chin up, you’ve had a bad couple of days. Tomorrow is the time to get your head right so you will leap into the day on Monday with a new found enthusiasm for life
You won’t take shit from no one, you’ll get all those things you’ve been procratinating about done. You WILL pass your driving test.
Work colleagues and acquaintances will notice a change about you, men will be fearful and want to stay on your right side, women will say to themselves " I never noticed how good looking he is before today". There won’t be anymore bad days.
A forum stands behind you.

Except the members you banned of course.

Why do you get the train when the bus is about 40 mins quicker?

Thanks, bro. I’m in fine fettle. I’ve quite a laid back and philosophical outlook on life and these things aren’t the end of the world. Sure, I completely lack practical life skills but I can usually “get a man in” to do stuff like DIY. I just need to get over the line with the driving at some stage in the next decade or so. I don’t need a car during the week but it’s a little bit of hassle at weekends and I probably can’t afford to get a man in to drive me around.

As an aside, I never banned anybody. But those posters whose user privileges I suspended would even acknowledge deep down that I’ve a lovely way about me.

Wexford Bus? Where does it pick up?

I’m a 10 minute walk to Pearse and like the comfort of the train at off peak times.

Usually get a twosie or even a foursie to oneself.

Too working class

Mac · February 24, 2018, 2:38pm

Georges Quay or at the Davenport either.

Bandage · February 24, 2018, 2:45pm

Outside Ulster Bank?

How does it weave its way from George’s Quay to The Davenport?

mickee321 · February 24, 2018, 2:50pm

Mac · February 24, 2018, 2:56pm

Turns left up a little laneway before Tara at and eventually turns right onto Lombard Street, up Westland row.

Thank you Davy and Brendan.

Copper_pipe · February 25, 2018, 6:12pm

If you get your Davy Fitz emoji, us Limerick folk will be looking for a Malachy emoji
