I've tried them all but always end up going back to the Mach 3.
I find they last the longest and give the best shave.

Great Detective work there Gab  ;D
Still doesn't prove anything,all that's saying is it was my belief the board needed another thread on Northern Ireland.

How about a thread on politics in Northern Ireland?

Following on from LaoisLad's noble suggestion that there are too many political/six county threads

I never said anything of the sort.

Is the new Laois hurling manager in place yet,I may have missed it.

Yup.Just last night.

Best of luck to him,it's a thankless job.

Seamas Plunkett was confirmed as the next manager of the Laois senior hurlers at a specially convened meeting of the County Committee on Monday night.

His appointment brings to an end an exhaustive search for a replacement to Teddy McCarthy, which had been spearheaded by Plunkett, along with Paul Cuddy. Cuddy will also be part of the new management team.

Plunkett's appointment left the minor managers job vacant, but Laois GAA moved quickly to fill the void with Pat Critchley set to succeed Plunkett. Tony Doran was set to be confirmed for a second year as U-21 manager last night also.

It follows a whirlwind few days since last Tuesday night's convention, with new chairman Gerry Kavanagh wasting little time in solving the managerial crisis with the senior hurlers. The new setup had been put in place by last Friday night, while Plunkett and Cuddy will now begin the process of finding suitable candidates for their backroom team.

Homeland season 2 finale was decent!

Haven't seen it yet but watched Dexter's season finale. It was good as well but not as good as the last 2. Great show though. Hope to get through Homeland and the last 2 Love/Hate's this evening. Should be a good evening!
I got a bottle of champagne and a box of rubbers in my Secret Santa at work so I'm hoping for a good evening too. I just hope the wife is out when I get home  ;D

Posh w**k?

Laioslad's long list of ex girlfriends

Well I suppose it's a better attempt than the usual misspelling of Laois... Loais.

Another thread on Northern Ireland, just what the board needs.

Jesus, you Laois men really don't like us Northerners!  ;D

It goes back a long way. Uladh was always the most Gaelic part of Ireland, it hurts  them Leinster folk, we have been bullying them since CĂș Chullainn was running around ;)

Be careful now or I'll set Billy Sheehan loose on ye...

The full-Irish breakfast in Treacy's, the Heath.

Haven't been in years, was always a good spot for grub, is it still going well?

what................ us from the north should breakaway and have our own 'wee country' GAA forum? No one from the 26 will be allowed

That would be great.
