I remember just spending nights out the back with the lads till like 4 or 5 in the morning and just staring up at the sky during the summer...It was quite beautifull. Definitely going to move to the countryside wherever i end up living(Hopefully Bavaria )

The countryside scares the ****e out of me at night to be honest. Riddled with banshees and whatnot , city for me despite the scum element

I can't believe there are people that still believe in banshees... if you ever are in the countryside and hear a loud female shrieking noise... thats a female fox... not a banshee!! but ya countrysides can be scary at night... I mean i'm terrified of the dark and would never go to look at the stars on my own!!

its can be creepy down at my grannies. there is an old country lane between my grannies house and uncles house with fields for cows on either side....they follow you on the other side of the hedge...and what makes it creepy is, when the sun went down, there would be no cows in the field...plus at the end of the lane is a derelict farm house which creeps the f*** out of me at night

Had to read this a second time to get it glad I did though ha!

Early bird indeed, but 1 to 7pm on a Sunday, some of the main courses on the early bird menu are €17 on the normal menu, choice of 2 or 3 starters and then an ice cream cup or something else for desert.

The early bird menu in Zaks in unreal value, starter (good choice), main course (I think the steak option is a bit dearer) and any desert (brownie in Zaks is savage too) for €20 ish. Would have gone to Zaks yesterday only I wanted a fish dish and Market Lane have a good selection of fish dinners.

Wow that was quick! Consider it yours only problem is you have to go with me as the tickets are in my name.

Not sure if I can go yet as it is on on Wednesday 10th in Mahon point at 6.30 (and I have boot camp) but the movie is called "I love you Philipp Morris" and Jim Carrey plays a conman in it.

Nice, I thought it might have been for the French film fest same as Papa Lazarou.
