Club Tyrone annual members' night next Thursday 18th at Garvaghey.

We have a good panel lined up for a chat, including a Derry man!

My OH flies out on Thurs to attend Saturday and Sunday.

He won't like that longlist that doesn't include either Rory or Shane, but as long as at least one makes the cut, he'll be OK.   

Ah brilliant! Comhgairdeas libh.

He obviously never posted anything that put you off.

Mickey Harte absolutely wants to win it!

Agree - Tyrone won their first NFL in Mickey's first year in charge, 2002, which was proceeded by winning Sam the next year...

I just saw this - unbelievable.  If you don't agree with it, don't write a letter.  Simple. 

Anyone that goes into teaching will struggle financially.. is there a lower paid degree course job?

i.e if I did law became solicitor/barrister/corporate law?

Engineer degree and so on?

Accounting - trainees in the north get buttons

I was at the Saffron Business Forum event this morning - Paul McErlean asked Denis O'Brien for some of his Beacon Hospital proceeds for Casement.  He didn't say no     

Tyrone hanging on now. Men v boys

Not even doing that now.

The Corporation Tax case was made before Brexit, and it did make economic sense back then.  Many of my colleagues were involved in the investigative groundwork, and certainly the community of chartered accountants (of which I'm a member) was majority in favour of tax powers devolving here.  Not sure how much things will have changed by now. 

I decide to stick with a Bialetti Mocha pot from Tk-Max for 20quid. Lovely smell in the house in the morning. good beans required though, Belfast Coffee roasters hard to beat.

They sadly don't do decaff, but I had a bag of their Christmas blend (any different to any other time of the year??) and it was nice. 

I got the Bambino from cloud picker,great machine. Never any trouble with last 3 years now.
Any recommendations for coffee from local places that deliver. Like to try somethung  different all the time

Try New Kid Coffee - friends of mine started it, based down in Letterkenny but they will deliver to NI for free if you order over €30 or so.  Really good. 

I heard about a new baby in my wider family network - if that's you, then I never realised you were on here too, just knew of one of your older brothers. 

Probably frowned upon especially these days but we would have had to stay and hold our wee girls hand to help her fall asleep but when the other half was in hospital I done the "Cry it Out" method. Life saver wouldn't be the word.. Meant I had 1/2 hours in the evening to clean the house, do the washing, meal prep etc.. Also helped her sleep through the night which other half was glad off when she got out of hospital.

I used a sleep consultant (just one session) and she more or less gave me permission to do a version of "cry it out" - worked like a treat too, after two nights.  Has mainly slept through ever since.  About to transition him to a bed though - that'll be interesting...

1 week in 

First three months are tough.  Just ride it out. 

And as someone said, tell your partner/OH to try to keep going with the feeding - I switched to bottles during the day at around 4/5 months, and kept feeding myself at night until they dropped those feeds, because I was too pure lazy to go down and make a bottle in the night.  And especially during the winter nights!  My husband obviously agreed with my approach - never once did he have to go and make a bottle during the night (though may have been dispensed for calpol the odd time)
