That Cork is a GREAT place to live?..I would hang my head in shame as well if I'd said anything like that.

As Homer said..I shall never get my come-uppance!...No come-uppance, you hear?

LMAO....fair enough, but leave it to you to pick up on 'that' side of things in Cork.  I was referring more to this:

LOADS of things to do with the family although I'm sure you'll pick that page apart as well.

It is scheduled to commence at 12.30 and will be structured to allow the audience to come and go at will. As a special thank you to all their loyal supporters over the year admission will be free to this event.
Also due to many requests there will be a special limited edition CD of their Art Trail concert available at the Glucksman. Their first CD will be releases on the Aphasia Label (aphasiarecordings.com) early in the new year. Mick and Danny appear individually on the just released "The Sound We Are Now" (soundwearenow.org).

They have toured extensively in Ireland and have appeared in festivals in both Germany and Japan. Most recently at DEAF (Dublin Electronic Arts Festival) Employing a wide range of sound making devices ranging from stones , home made instruments, electronics, amplified textures, oscilloscopes , thermins, field recordings etc.. they continue to push the boundaries of sound making and listening."


Wow Laxie...a Quiet Christmas? No wonder you're going to look for some excitement in stab-city.

Timothy was gone to a pub poker tourney when the call came in.  Waited up for him to let him know we'd be spending the night in Limerick.  Better to tell him when he's had a few drinks and is feeling brave, than to wait til the sobering light of day.  Gentle reminder this morning that he's already 'agreed' to it.  Poor guy...

"One-on-one Hurling session with Donal Óg Cusack".

Can he puke better than anyone else? Does anyone actually need lessons in throwing up?

All sounds rather in-bred to me

This from the guy whose national sport is crossing canals using a big pole.....

Nah mate..our national sport is football...but you wouldn't understand anything about that being played at a decent level

Actually this "fierljeppen" as it is called is almost a national past time in the summer in the North of the Netherlands. .it's how farmers used to go from field to field jumping the canals..it's now mainly used as a "sport" and for the easter egg hunt in the northern provinces. As well as used when people go looking for the first "Kievits" (no idea what the bird is called in English) egg in Friesland.

Generally good fun..but you have to be carefull  not to fall into the water as most of those shitty little canals have tonnes of blue "mud" at the bottom and you smell for a week

You put your right foot in,
You put your right foot out,
You put your right foot in
And you shake it all about.
You do the Hokey Pokey
And you turn yourself around,
That's what it's all about.

You put your left foot in,
You put your left foot out,
You put your left foot in,
And you shake it all about.
You do the Hokey Pokey
And you turn yourself around,
That's what it's all about.

You put your right hand in,
You put your right hand out,
You put your right hand in
And you shake it all about.
You do the Hokey Pokey
And you turn yourself around,
That's what it's all about

To be fair, he picked the right thread to promote golf clubs.  They'd deffo come in handy late at night in Limerick.
