Ya its alright. With a standard saorview box, you get RTE 1 and 2, RTE 1 +1hour, TV 3, 3e, TG4, RTE News, RTE 2HD, RTE Kids, Aertal channel and the radio stations. RTE sports coming soon I think.

Depends on your box, only RTE 2 HD at the moment, but im guessing TV3 will be in HD soon enough.

Maybe head to the tech terrestrial forum , i think you can get a box with the Irish stations as well as the English free view stations.

The whole Saorview signal is a heap of ****e where I live anytime it pours rain just forget it, making the AI semi last season a chore to watch(having to go back to the cruddy but dependable analogue signal). On another note a stumpy chicken pecked my front window about a hour ago, my neighbours fowl just don't give a sh*t. What did he want a cup of tea and a few hobnobs?

Went to see The Bourne Legacy today.

I don't think I've ever seen a film so blatantly take a full script, cut it in half, and produce the first half of the script as a full movie :P

I can't remember a more underwhelming end to a film, I was just sitting there thinking 'Is that it?'.

Really enjoyed the Irish film Grabbers some cool Jaws references

Bourne isnt the same or isnt Bourne for me without Damon and Greengrass on board

Hashtag_HEEL

My friend and I went to see the new Bollywood film "Ka The Tiger". Good film, shame I forgot my glasses though. By the time We'd left my head and eyes were wrecked!
Very weird dance sequences outside trinity involving the DFB band, teachers and kilkenny hurlers.

oh goody cant wait for rugby training tonight, I love muck

Just joined the Fantasy Football league, let the battle commence. Although to be honest these things usually only hold my interest for a few weeks, but Im gonna try to keep up this year due to a guy in work getting too cocky about winning the last couple of years!

Saw The Bourne Legacy the other day in The Savoy,thought it was decent enough,much prefer Jeremy Renner to Matt Damon,mainly because Matt Damon's face annoys me!

Speaking of favourite bands, picked up two tickets to see my favourite band Alexisonfire play their last ever gigs in Europe. Can't wait, especially as I never expected them to do a farewell tour!

December 2nd and 3rd in London, tickets for both sold out within 3 minutes so I was delighted to get some. You can pick some up at fairly inflated prices on ebay though. This will be my 13th and 14th time seeing them!

Angron

Gah, no hope I'd be able to go anyway, I've only gone to England for a show once, and that was during the holidays.

Emptied out my pockets of my jacket today and I found about 800 dollars give or take in it. I thought it was less than that.

Can't believe Alexisonfire are splitting, criminally underrated band..

This is easily one of my favourite Music Video's of All Time...

The only music source I trust is Mave Deltzer from the Music Observer.

Cherry_Cola

Yeah it's a shame alright though it was inevitable once City & Colour started to take off.

The gigs should be mental, they're gonna play practically all of their songs so I can't wait!

Yea would have loved if they had done a show over here (actually have they ever played Ireland?)

Seen C&C last year in the Academy and loved it , but still would have loved to see Alexisonfire aswell

Yeah they've played here twice, once in 2005 supporting Taking Back Sunday and again in 2007 headlining the Button Factory as it's now known. I've met them a few times and went drinking with them in London and they're really sound lads.

The new Gallows stuff sounds great, I was never really a fan of their older stuff but will definitely check out the new album.

If you guys like them then you should check out The Ghost of a Thousand, they broke up last year but have two cracking albums.

3-0 down, agger sent off, we NEVER EVER looked like scoring and Joe Cole came on got injured due to being a fat ****. Someone tell Rodgers we were meant to pass like Barca not defend like them. A f*cking disgraceful performance.

Going to paramore tonight.

Cancer Bats are incredible live. Saw them(briefly) at Download. They were bumped off the lineup thanks to the delays caused by the mud and rain.

Thankfully Billy Talent let them come out during their set and play a song, they launched into Hail Destroyer and the place came unhinged. Absolutely tore main stage a new one. I'd like to catch them again sometime.
