Yes, there is After Hours, but a lot of us folk wouldn't venture that way all too often. The reason I made a request in a thread instead of…

I dunno, I really miss Network 2. Damn Freeview boxes up here dont have RTE, or even Sky One. I'll be doomed to online viewing once Prison Break comes back.

You should be able to tune in RTE1&2 and TV3 and TG4 old school style. Just flick from AV(freeview) back to TV and it should be available.

Ah it wasn't directed at a particular poster. It was another rant about Hillsborough and the comment was in regard to someone connected with that. I only skim read the post as it was quite long and ranty.

I'm waiting until I can get/watch a full season at once. I've been dying to see it, but I've been warned off watching episodes here and there.

The Wire is amazing! I implore you to watch it asap. Prob is best not to watch an episode here and there, maybe watch a disc at a time(2/3 episodes per disc)

Good morning men.

I've had 11 pints of staropramen (best beer there is) and transferred to a night club where I had 6 bottles of Harp (I like to support the local brewery, even if it's fate has been decided). Needless to say I'm not well - and what is worse is I made the call to the ex...

I shall regret this tomorrow so I will happily vent about such now.

(P.S. It literally took me 20 mins to remove typos from this.)

It turns out it wasn't too bad. I checked me sent folder and it was limited to "are you out?" and "I'm in pub x".

Of course at 3am when I was cross-eyed it seemed much worse.
