Thatâs the Deep Sinking - hope your bike was in one piece after. Was a great walk route during covid. Gonna take yonks to sort greenway along there. Plans are to switch it to the other side of the canal for a stretch.

Its absolutely savage. We dropped the berlingo at confey station and cycled to dromcondra along the canal. Had already done a high stretch of very bumpy track jist before coolmine station. It was pissing rain so we decided the smart move was to get off and go round till the start of the track proper. Missed about 1.5km i reckon. Is that stretch all overgrown dirt track?

Yeah pretty much from there to castleknock station. Itâs a proper wild oasis though in the middle of suburbia. I may or may not have had several snakebites there as a teenager.

No. A wry grin sufficed for me. I looked my younger self in the eye and was happy with my current lot.

Ben Dunne was from Cork. I always assumed he was a South Dublin cunt rather than a Cork one.
Ben Dunne was brought up about 150 yards from my childhood home
The mother (Mrs Dunne) was very well got in the area

Supersonic means faster than the speed of sound, while hypersonic means specifically five times faster than the speed of sound.
Therefore, all hypersonic speeds are also supersonic, but something supersonic is not necessarily hypersonic.

It doesnât say if itâs bigger than the Kew project so I had a search.
Looks like they both have their limitations.
No harm having two I supposeâŚ

Several decades after the filming of Jaws (1975), Lee Fierro, who plays Mrs. Kintner, walked into a seafood restaurant and noticed that the menu had an âAlex Kintner Sandwichâ. She commented that she had played his mother so many years ago. The owner of the restaurant ran out to meet her - none other than Jeffrey Voorhees, who had played her son. They had not seen each other since the original movie shoot.
