    Yes, Yes I am. I am fully prepared and have catered for all eventualities and variables. I think I have every angle covered but there may be some small points I have overlooked. What concerns do you have yourself Starbelgrade? Switches off "what i say at work when I don't have a clue what the other lad is on about mode"

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,944 ✭✭✭✭4zn76tysfajdxp


    Well are you?

    Ha! Ready? Following your orders in January, starbelgrade, I've been busting my arse in the gym every damn day for the last six months in preparation. Lifting weights. Hardcore super-sprinting. Shadow boxing. Throwing shapes. I haven't spoken to my family since. My girlfriend is a hollow shell of a woman. My dog lies on the couch overfed and under-walked. And you still haven't told me what's going on on the 24th of October. :mad:

    I do so hope you mean Eton College..........Eaton was a simply Ghastly place, full of would be dentists and solicitors, not the kind of people one would willingly associate with in this life or the next.

    Using it as a lube to stop dick-burn does not count Kf, you have to rub it on your face. You do have a very young looking flute though. ..I think she said young, young or small, I can't remember..:D Saoirviews sorted here anyway, neighbours are getting it fitted tomorrow and I've bribed my youngest with a crisp tenner-he should have it whipped off and er, transplanted within a day or two.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,108 ✭✭✭amacca


    whats the 24th

    Does it really matter?.................We are all going to die at some stage and you are only living with the illusion of control over anything in your life..

    I say time to make some cucumber sandwiches and organize a jolly good cricket match!
