actually, the more i look at it the more i really want to know what that gold building in the centre of the pic is!

I'm going with Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall

I was looking up Taipai. It sounds great in wikitravels write up. I don't know why I haven't read more about it before.

well tbh first time i ever looked into Taipei was a few weeks ago and im considering moving there so i guess it isnt that strange you havent looked into it before. and yeah your right about the building, since i posted that I was checking it up myself

Here it is:

stumbled over the result of the Barca game so im watching the Jonathon ross repeat instead, although def sounds like it was a cracking game.

Just watched a bit of that a few minutes ago, everyone shoving each other about like a bunch of kids on a school yard, cringeworthy stuff

That's more of a Mayo thing. Scallywags

CMpunked · 20-09-2009 3:50pm

the match is fairly tight

Diabhal Beag · 20-09-2009 4:01pm

That was an important score for Cork

Diabhal Beag · 20-09-2009 4:14pm

My bet isn't looking horrible ATM

CMpunked · 20-09-2009 4:36pm

as much as it pains me to say it...

I think cork might turn it around....

you might end up fighting off a few chinese invaders before long :eek: china still considers taiwan to be part of the motherland while taiwan considers themselves independant and tensions are very very strained between the two

yep ive looked into the history of the place but that isnt too likely tbh, long long since there was a serious threat of such an action. Plus the fact that they are seperate means that they are less stringent on certain things such as censorship with regards the internet etc.

Hard luck Gimmick and co twas Kerrys day

I made this post elsewhere about what TV shows id reccomend and thought id post it here as an excuse to bump up the off topic thread (cant remember why I wanted to bump it but if I do itl be on page 1 for me to post in

).

Id reccomend the following to anyone, if you havent seen them they are worth trying (although im sure the majority of you have seen the majority of them):

The Sopranos
The Wire
Oz
Dexter
Breaking bad
Californication
Entourage
Generation Kill
True blood
Weeds
Eastbound & Down
24
Arrested development
The Office (US & UK)
Skins
Spaced
Curb Your Enthusiasm
The West Wing (first few seasons)
Heroes (S1)
Prison break (S1)
City of Men (sounds gay but its the series by the 'City of God' fellas )
The IT Crowd
Black Books
Friday night lights
South Park
The Boondocks
Peep Show
Afro Samurai

krudler · 25-09-2009 9:50pm

Everyone should watch The Wire, that is all

Rjd2 · 25-09-2009 10:11pm

I would probably add
The Thick Of It
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Pheonix Nights (Kay is a tool but its still easy to forget how great it is)
Frasier
Six Feet Under
Carnivale
Deadwood
Peep Show
Help
Alan Partidge
Blackadder
The Inbetweeners
Flight Of The Conchords
I am probably going to buy Friday Night Lights soon as well.
I would rather kill myself than watch an episode of Skins, hateful patronising vile ****e made by ***** in my opinion. :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Rjd2 · 26-09-2009 8:07pm

CMpunked · 27-09-2009 1:58am

have you watched all the other shows that you seem to deem not good enough to make the list i had? or is your point just that mad men should be on it?

Mad men is one of those seasons that im weird with regards to, i missed it at the start so im reluctant to just jump in, in the middle. Some day I will watch all episodes from the beginning as ive done with many seasons retrospectively but until then im not going to be suggesting people watch it as well I havent and therefore have no basis for me reccomendating it (although I do know many of the people behind the Sopranos -not Chase- are behind it and I am a self confessed Soprano's mark so I suppose i have that).

Diabhal Beag · 27-09-2009 2:16pm

Poor Bernard. Got the **** knocked out of him

To be honest its not exactly earth shattering money I won, but its still a recession, I did feel sorry for Bernard though.

What in the name of god does FYP mean?
