    Is your capslock key toggling?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,117 ✭✭✭✭MrJoeSoap


    If you have to give justification for posting it in AH, then it belongs somewhere else... :D

    I've only been once, didn't really enjoy it.

    Weather = Same as where I live.
    Location = Not too far from where I live.
    Staff = Grand bunch of lads/lassies.
    People = The usual race-going folk. People who are usually prepared to spend money on nothing.
    Races = A load of horses running around a track, fair play.
    Service = Alright I guess.
    Atmosphere = Decent buzz off it.

    Was there a specific reason for alternating capital letters in the thread title?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,166 ✭✭✭Cheeky_gal


    MrJoeSoap.....your answer was to perfection dude. Nice, clear, to the point! :D

    And the CAPS alternating in the title was just to make the title look pretty I guess...:D

    +1


    Granted I went through a phase like that: typing in my msn name in alternating cases back when I was around 12.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,778 ✭✭✭✭Kold


    The caps are so ridiculous that I didn't even open this thread. Plus going to the races is gay.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    Ok, it seems we're all jumping on the thread title... Sorry for dragging this off topic, don't mean to be a dick about it. :o

    Ye are all just a bunch of jealous begrudgers :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,166 ✭✭✭Cheeky_gal


    NB// Idea taken from MrJoeSoap...ha

    Weather = Pretty dissappointing...
    Location = Aaaah don't get me started, the middle of nowhere! The transports a bitch, hence I don't go to 92 often!
    Staff = Seemed pretty nice...
    People = What a bunch of tossers...tbh! I suppose you get that on the southside...haha :D
    Races = Not very exciting...
    Service = Hmmmmm not sure...
    Atmosphere = Fairly busy...

    Please no one comment on my answers, answer for yourselves.....more opinions the merrier! :D

    My God get over the title people!!!!!!!!!!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,031 ✭✭✭Lockstep


    I didn't go.I just typed in something as your title reminded me of back when I was 12, and God don't I cringe when I remember myself back then

    Great routine, pick/bet a horse, bet/drink and watch the race. Repeat until broke or it doesn't matter anymore. Admittedly weather can be a big fun spoiler, but not being a regular at race meetings, a day at the nags is a great day out.

    Slight off-topic, how on earth did Leopardstown get its name?

    Nah, man, that's a representation on the Pal... I mean Dublin.... not racing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,839 ✭✭✭Hobart


    Thanks, but no thanks. this has as much to do with Horse Racing, as Kold does with being funny.

    How are you so sure of that? Did he ride your round the paddock a few times?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,987 ✭✭✭✭zAbbo


    I'm disappointed, I thought the title was Leopards FTW!!!!

    I thought I was gonna see some kickass pics of the big cats....

    The little orphan thread.

    Perhaps he was one of the horses then.. Were his responses to your questions him banging his leg down once for yes and twice for no?

    Or did he have peanut butter smeared on his gums to make it look like he was talking, like Mr. Ed?

    Allegedly it was once a leper colony and it's a corruption of Lepers-town. Never saw any lepers there myself so can't say if that's true or not.
