Season 1 Episode 8 as Tyrion and Bronn head towards Tywin Lannister's camp he says to Bronn if anyone asks him to kill him he must remember whatever the price Tyrion will double it.
I assume Bronn will remember this.

Grants as pointed out earlier is good as also is Barbonis a few yards away down Castle Street.
The village Inn in Killyclogher has proved a popular attraction in more recent months  and is frequented by many people of your parents age availing of the carvery during the day.
The Millstone is also a popular attraction with many and I include the restaurant and the bar food in that. The bar food is reasonably priced. Sally's in John Street is also a popular spot.
The Ulster American Folk Park is a must as it will delight your parents with houses from the past just like your grandparents houses. The history of emigration from Ireland is also very interesting.
The Coach Inn on the Dromore Road is good also.
Also the Old Charm Inn in Carrickmore is reasonable and worth a visit.

You really need to get and about more.

My parents are going to a wedding up around Omagh in a couple of weeks. They're heading from Mayo on the day (Thurs) before the wedding, staying in Carrickmore - anywhere around that general area that people would recommend for food?

Also, if they were to go up early in the day, is there anything in particular worth seeing?

Thanks

Restaurants in Omagh area are fairly bleak, a good number can't even manage a 5 rating for hygiene.  Grants is the best in the town and there are no others I would take anyone to outside the town unless you just wanted a basic good feed of the same old stuff, about as good as a carry out of which Omagh has a huge number.

When you stop to think about what is worth seeing in Omagh, there is little or nothing worthwhile for the tourist. The Folk Park is great on a dry day otherwise bring a good coat and boots, remember Omagh has one of the highest rainfalls for towns in Ireland, on a par with Derry.  The Omagh bomb memorial must be one of the worst of its type anywhere in the world.  Town centre is grim with too much traffic, too little parking, too many charity shops and too many closed premises. 

The more I think about it the worse it gets from a visitor point of view.  Apart from that it is a good place to live, great schools, plenty of sporting clubs of all types, good leisure facilities and a very good place to bring up children. Just a pity we have to export them out of the area to get worthwhile, reasonably paid jobs.

Tremendous assassination of the town. Actually feel a bit depressed after reading that.

Worst part is that all of it is true and could be even worse. Didn't mention the weekend night time entertainment on John Street or Main Street which make them no go areas most weekends if you are over 25.  Or the multiple carryouts all along Campsie that make it a no go area when the pubs and nightclubs empty..

Old Charm Inn in Carrickmore?

What are their interests? What do they normally go to see when they visit areas?

What should have been two absolutely epic moments were ruined - Jon riding Rhaegal (named after his father) and learning the truth of his parentage.

The former was almost like comic relief and reminded me of Harry Potter's first broomstick flying lesson while the latter was ruined by Sam being a bumbling mess. "I'm sorry".

I'd certainly agree that the two going for a spin on the dragons didn't work at all.

If they had played "Raindrops keep falling on my head" during that scene it would have been so much better

Sorry to hi jack this old thread but saves me opening a new one to ask a question.recently bought a new house and need to get house insurance,all advice or help welcomed.should I ring around it local area or just use go compare or a site of that type??

AXA or Abbey usually good places to start

[3 minutes these days is unheard of.]

There are certainly a couple of incidents monaghan can right feel agreived about. For me the lack of additional time being the major one. 3 minutes these days is unheard of.
The other two are the Cavanagh free, which I don't agree was a dive, but he certainly could have been blown for charging as James Mccarthy was the day before.
The other was the one on Harte, was was never a free, but as someone else has mentioned, Harte was up and away anyway and who knows how that attack would have ended.
The one at the end was never a free imo, despite kieran Hughes best efforts to manufacture one.
On the Tyrone side I thought there was also a couple of Incredibly soft frees given against them too. The two that come to mind was one on drew wylie that began missed and another that mcmanus converted.
The handtrip on CC was probably a black card offence by the book, but would probably been harsh at the same time.
The late body check on Cavanagh was probably similar to what mckieran got the black card for in the donegal game, but I wouldn't have any complaints about the yellow there

The Harte injury was the only stoppage in the second half. I was expecting 2 minutes TBH. do you just play 6 or 7 minutes just for the sake of it?

Don't think the ref had a decisive impact on the outcome.
You can't, with the benefit of hindsight, right all the wrongs that affected your side, without also doing the same for the other side.
Yesterday, as bad as the ref was, the poor decisions balanced themselves out over the course of the game.

That's Sunday game standard analysis, i.e. lazy. Bit like when a ref takes the lazy way out and books both players for an incident it is clear that there is only one guilty party.

The ref had a mare and the incidents didn't come close to balancing out.

If the ref was lazy he would have played for a draw and given Monaghan a free. That Irish examiner article is one sided and the perfect example of lazy journalism.

With only European teams left surely England will want to get the hell out of there ASAP.
Englands coming home

Believe it or not... Still a decent chance of making an AI semi final, and that's a game that could go anyway on the day. Play cork which is achievable. then play rossie/Armagh which is also achievable. Then 3rd game Donegal is also achievable (although in ballybofey it could be a struggle) when was the last time tyrone beat Donegal in ballybofey? but its doable all the same. Then Kerry/galway most likely in an All Ireland semi final. Extremely tough but on championship day could go anyway.

And they play England in the final because they are already there too

"Don't be surprised if things go quiet today so far as the DUP-Conservative discussions are concerned.

Not all DUP politicians are Sabbatarians, but enough are to make it party policy to avoid being seen to negotiate on a Sunday.

It was no coincidence that a DUP statement effectively denying that any final deal with Theresa May had been reached was published at midnight exactly, not one minute past."

Well if they don't negotiate on a Sunday it will be a big move if she turns up to watch a match on the sabbath.

What about the Poacher factor? This man knows Tyrone insideout.

With all due respect follow me up to Carlow on the rocky road to Dublin.

[Ronan]

Players like Ronan O'Neill and Ronan McHugh need to be doing much more to put pressure on for a starting spot in NFL. Not good enough tonight. McCurry doimg much better.

Yes ........ apart from Ronan's free kicks keeping Tyrone in the match.

Paddy McBrearty's performance reminded me of Stevy O'Neill in full flow. He was totally unmarkable in the second half. Can't believe he didn't get MotM.

Those Michael Murphy frees completely took the wind out of Donegal's sails, can't believe they gave them to a sub who hadn't even got a chance to stretch his legs. I wonder was that a management calll or Murphy himself?

You could see Paddy McBrearty showing murphy the ball as he was coming on signalling more that paddy wanted murphy to hit the free

Dean Rock did exactly the same though
