    Morning all


    Between 1965 and 1989 vocations to the clergy dropped every year except 1980 following the papal visit. What % did it rise in 1980 from the 1979 figure?

    I think, not 100% certain, that RC nuns are not ordained so wouldn't be considered clergy


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,460 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Would clergy include nuns, etc..?

    They talk about seminaries so I don’t think so

    %wise it shouldn’t make much difference


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,460 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Not a great question judging by the interaction, I'll try and find something better for tomorrow

    20% was the correct answer, which is a sizeable enough jump

    Ha ha, I was actually trying to wind you up Buile, but then I looked and it's true!

    I searched for that post with the intention of editing it but you can follow it back, I didn't


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,559 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit


    I know that's probably not as funny for you as it is for me :o

    Also, I'm very disappointed that Aris wasn't messing around. You've let me down Aris :D

    For a garden fish pond you need a surface area of at least 3.75 m2 to allow the fish to move around but you also need a certain depth, so it doesn't over heat and the fish can move freely enough, whats the minimum recommended depth? In mm please

    Surely that's very dependant on what sort of fish you want to keep...

    That’s why it’s a minimum


    That’s also why Baile is making jokes at your expense!

    This is unfair because fancy people with ponds in their gardens can just go out and measure how deep they are. All I have is waterlogged flower pots and puddles at the bins.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,005 ✭✭✭✭Toto Wolfcastle


    I fell in my neighbour’s fish pond once. Not sure that gives me an advantage.

    Well people say that you can drown in two inches of water, and clearly you didn't drown, so obviously the answer has to be less than two inches.
