The hill in Magaluf is getting steeper and steeper.

Pointed out Bomber Liston to one of the young lads (around 20) from the football team at the weekend. He replied, who?

I’d be dropping that cunt sharpish. Alternatively laps for a fortnight, lots of them….Imagine that……

Liam Rosenior being a manager

We lost another one?

Collection duty for the wife’s nieces tonight from Longtitude. It’ll be like the fall of Saigon up there.

Although I’ll pretend I’m young tomorrow at the Fontaines.

Some young fella I play 5 a side with was in Dublin at a gig during the week , I asked him who did he see and he replied “ have you ever heard of a band called green day or wheezer “
How depressing is it to be asked that in my 40’s

I was in the gym a few years back day or two after Dolores O’Riordan died. The young lad training us had never heard of The Cranberries.

You’d hardly realise when you’re around a 20 yr old that you’re over dbl their age

TFK is getting old. Young firebrands like @tank and are getting replaced with disaffected middle aged bigots, alcos and oddballs. @The_Dublin_Bay_Prawn would be turning in his grave.

Not sure where to post this but decided here was the closest fit.

I was chatting to a lad in the pub last Thursday night. We spoke about different things namely around Carrick-on-Shannon where he had a house. He was looking to finish work early on the Friday to head down to Carrick. He was having some trouble with the taxman and asked me to look into it. He gave me his number saying that I probably didn’t need it as he’d see me around.

I wasn’t around over the weekend but heard from a lad yesterday that the poor fella dropped dead of a heart attack Friday morning at work.

That’s it. Done. Tax issues are of no relevance now.

Jesus. Sorry to hear that

A run through the condolences page of rip.ie shows a message by a TD in Kildare - Bernard Durkan. A generic ‘Deepest sympathy’. How disingenuous can you get? He obviously gets his secretary to scour rip.ie for Kildare deaths, post a genetic comment in the hope of getting a few votes.

Prick.

Did you move to Oireland recently?

No but it still would annoy you.

There is a hardly a funeral held in the country that doesn’t have a politician of some hue pass through it, ingenuine and all as they might be. That RIP post should hardly surprise you

There’s a councillor in Limerick, Mitchell from Hospital - an auctioneer and notorious cunt, who does the same. Every death he posts the same message without ever mentioning the deceased or their family by name.
