Apologies, I thought it was actually. I thought you had a dig previously too about the same thing. Again, apologies.

Friends?

Sure why not and for the record the food at The Grill @Ollies is great.:D

Had to get that in there before the Boards police delete the off topic posts.;)

9600 baud - it was bitching! And when they brought out the new Skype handset - well I just had to get one!

Dad lost his wedding ring on Wednesday. Asked up in JCs had a man's wedding ring been handed in. No luck. The girl said you'd be lucky to find it. These days people would keep it and sell it for money. My mother was up in the store yesterday and enquired to the same girl about a product. She remembered my mam and said she thought a ring was found by the cleaners. And sure enough, it was. My Dad got his ring back!

So fair play to the cleaners of JC's in Swords.

Bet you have some amazing apps on that yolk, tHB.

The graphics are a bit 'wooden'.

I just read this on the Balbriggan Cinema Facebook page:

"Hi All... **** 2 for 1 on all TICKETS TONIGHT ****"

I'm embarrassed to say that I read the asterisks as expletives & came up with something entirely different than was actually meant.

Would like to give a shout out of thanks to the paramedics who brought my mother to hospital last week. Ambulance was deployed from Swords.

Folks, I dropped into the Garda station last night to pick up some forms etc., but I wanted to ask some questions about them so I hung around.

You can't *NOT* hear the people being seen to before you, but I just wanted to forward on the info to anyone who lives locally or attends the club.


A guy came in to report his car was broken into while he was at the Naul FC, and two other cars that he knew of were broken into. His iPhone was stolen, but he didnt know what else was stolen from the other cars, or indeed how many others had been hit.


The Garda took information from him, but told him never to leave phones, wallets etc, or anything of value in his car again. I'm just firing this up here so everyone to warn anyone against keeping anything of value in their car.

Unfortunately it's that time of year again where these individuals can operate under the cover of darkness. It was endemic in NCD last year and seems to have started again.

Do you know that if you want a nick change you have to pay boards 5 euro, much simpler to close your account and open up a new account after a suitable period of time if your not surgically attached to your post count.:pac: I think the new nick suits me more.

Was just speaking to LeoB earlier and said I thought it wouldn't be long before you're back

Dizzyblonde

Welcome back Cardinal. Does this mean there's to be an inquisition?
