    I disappeared for a long time after last year's draft because of some ridonkeykong infractions :( left such a bitter taste in my mouth. Less said the better really but the way things are now I can't think of a friendlier place on boards.ie

    We were all the victims of some appalling moderating there for a bit, its to the lads credit that are in charge now and orestes before them that this place turned the corner.

    Oh are we doing this now? :D

    I was infracted for commenting on the price difference for ppvs between here and the UK. Apparently it had no place on the PW forum, instead of simply moving it I got an infraction >:(

    Stop, stop, you do not give us enough credit :D

    But ya, its a nice place to post and read now. Thats more down to individual posters than it is to any mods.

    And lets leave out the slagging off of former mods. We all have our own opinions, but in the spirit of keeping this place a nice place to post, I would say we should keep them to ourselves...

    Can't top it but I finally got my home beer brewing kit that I ordered before Christmas, so come back to me after I figure out how it all works and have a big batch of tasty ale on the go. Hopefully I'll have some stories then :P

    Heroic.

    Possibly the worst thing I've done drunk was go up to Ronnie Drew after a gig and ask him did he remember Luke Kelly. His best friend in the world like, of course he remembers him. Ronnie was none to happy, wanted to bayte me in fact. :o

    HAHAHA!! That story makes me laugh every time.

    Mine was after a saw doctors gig, I must have been after my body weight in stout. I stole a hanging basket from an estate agents office and hopped it off the bonet of a car. There was some thump off it. T'was funny at the time though, thats the main thing.

    What else have any of ye done when yer high on the loony soup?

    Dunno if this tops it, but me and the lads were drinking with some brits at the hostel in Krackow on Saturday night, anyway these boys reckoned they could outdrink the lads, after about 15 shots of vodka and countless beers, one of the brits just pukes all over the bar, while the rest of them were singing Irelands Call with us:D:D:pac::pac:

    Wishing Sky+HD was installed by now. Still waiting since Monday. Tonight would've been perfect for it. Hoping it's in before Arsenal/Pool game on Wednesday or before Friday for NBA All-Star weekend
