I am going to regret asking, but is the code word for the "real" heathen, pagan ceremony "would you like to come for tea and cucumber sandwiches"?

Some lady threw me a box of rubbers and told me to follow her...

I don't especially care for the tricolour either; I kinda like the gold harp on a green background myself.

I've always had a notion that the original flag was royal blue(not green) with a harp. Not sure when green became the default 'Irish' colour.

So they say in their new Olympic ad.

Persil is owned by Unilever, the British–Dutch multinational consumer goods company.

Is it right they can claim this in an ad?

Does it not disrespect those that died for Ireland's freedom?

Or have the government sold the rights of the flag as part of austerity?

Ironic or what. :pac:

baptised Catholic you get into heaven, baptised Protestant you get into the orgy. Which would you choose?

I actually agree with you, the flag with the harp on the plain background is very elegant.

The tri colour is a spent force anyway. This country is full of morons and flammers.

No the more I read into the scandals I learn there is an Irish influence present. For instance the Australian scandals all involved micks as well as those on the eastern coast of the states.

I didn't know that, but something tells me it is probably true.

Can we return to the subject of the original post please?

This thread has gone way off topic and I'd like my point to be addressed.

I was at my nephews protestant baptism, I was massively disappointed that no goat was sacrificed to Baal and not a naked virgin in sight. It was as boring and the same as mass, except I had a pocket full of condoms for the orgy afterwards that didn't happen.
