    There's a new system being rolled out and there were trials being carried out with some of us on it. It appears to be affecting it in some way- You'll see a thread has a new post but can't see the new post etc etc. It's not allowing me to delete duplicates at the moment either.

    Let's be realistic if Westmeath can keep it kicked out to them they'll do well.Its a day out and experience for a young team no expectations at all.Might as well get bate 25 points as opposed to parking the bus.

    I was in it enough times in my life in September to never forget.
    But that's beside the point. It has nothing to do with anything, were I from Offaly, Kerry, or Donegal, I'd still have the same thoughts on the subject.
    Is my opinion any less valid? Should I patronise you or bull**** you by saying ......... Yeah, ye have a great chance?
    Do you really see WH playing in Croke pk on Aug 9th? I think it's a Hurling weekend off the top of my head without looking it up.

    Clear herd test. All bar one that should have been in calf proved in calf. One set of twins. Only thing is, that may looks like it slowed things down, majority only 5-7 weeks in calf. Happy out today:D

    A dirty rotten scumbag pastard smashed the passenger widow of my van today in a car park in Cavan and stole a satchel with paperwork in it. Nothing valuable other than a cheque book but will cost me time and effort to replace.

    What a little scumbag. I've heard Cavan is going down the swanney a bit but wasn't sure how true that was.
    Last time I was there there was a big gang hanging out in the Tesco car park.

    I don't know the name of the car park but it happened on the upper tier in the car park behind The Carphone Warehouse which I was at the time enquiring about an upgrade for OH. Scumbag was seen by two ladies shopping and they reckoned he was in his fifties.

    Across the road from Dunnes isn't it? Used to live in the apartments just above that, had to walk up through those carparks. Was not happy there one bit. Got into a bit of a row with the neighbour as some may recall :pac:

    You're not the first person to have your car broken into in that car park. Far from it in fact. I always try to park along the Main Street in there.

    Have any of ye used steel wire that looks like snare wire for electric fencing ? I asked the father to pick up a bit yesterday and that's what he came back with . He reckons it's easier to work with but I don't know

    Definitely odd sorts hanging about in both these car parks, they seem to linger around watching out for bags/handbags left in cars..

    I'd wonder that the guards wouldn't set up one of those sting operations to catch the scumbags..

    Heard of someone getting their back window broken and a kid's school bag taken not too long ago. I make sure my lot keep bags out of sight as the contents mightn't be worth anything but the screen costs a fortune to repair.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,241 ✭✭✭✭Kovu


    My brother is home for a few weeks and he's making me look like daughter of the year by proxy :D Was fixing the topper with dad yesterday and there were more arguments between the two men, me stuck in the middle trying to keep the peace and hold the vicegrips.

    I thought Dunnes Stores actually owned that multi level car park? They had a parking warden patrolling it at one, (parking ticket refunded at till if spend big enough) That said ; the St. Clare's Court apartments had a pretty seedy reputation for year's now.

    Latest one for getting into cars the bastards are using is,having a little fcuked patrol the car parks as you get out they sneak up from passenger side and open one of those doors just slightly as you close your own door and lock the car so you think. You walk away car not properly locked even though u think it is and its robbed.

    I don't trust anyone in big carparks. Around Christmas time, my mum got into her car and put her bag down. Two seconds later an absolute scumbag opened her passenger door and whipped her bag out. Terrified the life out of her. She's very paranoid now.

    Luckily, a witness knew him and he was caught a few weeks later. Her bag was found about an hour away with everything in it apart from money and medicine.

    not being smart here but the days of leaving your handbag on the passenger seat or visible are long gone, we normally lock the doors from the inside when driving in built up areas.
