Likely story, didn't your socks match the colour scheme as well?

I just got a taxi back from town. I had an Irish taxi driver who went off on the usual rant of how the 'foreign' and 'illegal:rolleyes:' taxi drivers were ruining the business <insert racist bull sh it>.
After 30 seconds of this crap I told the guy I had sore ears as I have heard this cr a p a thousand times and that he could either drop me off here with no charge or stfu and take me back to the house. He immediately backed down and ended up giving me a €5 discount

I must try this more often.

After 3 days of moving (and cleaning) apartments it's pretty much done at last! Was getting boards and running withdrawal symptoms, have fixed one and heading out shortly to fix the other.

So, what's been going on in the world?

You know you quite possibly need a life when your idea of "retail therapy" involves buying a top and shorts in the Elverys sale...

The likes of Spurs, Everton, Celtic etc. should not be allowed entry into the Champions League, wastes everyone's time..............

I'm joking, I'm joking, staring boards ac lifetime ban in the face there for a sec

Pisco Sour · 17-08-2010 9:29pm

Spurs playing for a place in the CHAMPIONS League here. When was the last time Spurs were the CHAMPIONS of ANYTHING?

They need to change the name of the competition back to European Cup, as it is neither a competition for Champions, nor is it a League.

gerard65 · 17-08-2010 9:34pm

'Spurs are getting on top of young boys':eek:

Martin Keown, I wasn't a fan of you as a player and I'm not a fan of you as a commentator, generally not a fan all round

There just seemed to be a fair few reductions when I was in the one on Suffolk St, got a really nice long-sleeve blue and white Nike top for €12.99. Happy kirby is happy.

Congrats Foxx. I can't believe it's 20 years ago today that I got mine. :eek:

I noticed last night that Dunnes Stores now sells the full range of Lucozade gels, powder tubs, Jelly Beans, energy bars and glucose sweets. When did running become so main-stream? What's next - Spar Lycra shorts? MacDonalds recovery meals?

I'd assume Cornelscourt would have them if anyone would?

It was Cornelscourt I saw them in. Full range of products. As clear as the day is long. Aisle 23, between the dog food and the kitchen towels (or somewhere).

ManFromAtlantis · 18-08-2010 3:52pm

I use a Petzl Tikka XP2. It's excellent. Haven't used it in 6 months, but it'll be coming out of the closet soon.

thanks.

anyone else try the old running like a caveman thing?

robinph · 18-08-2010 4:25pm

The flashing red light option came in handy on my Petzl when wearing it late at night in Glastonbury.

No idea what it's like to actually run with.
