I couldn't get tickets so far either. I don't care about going but my father has watched Derry for over 50 years. The annoying thing is that my local club don't make it easy to become a member. They don't seem to go around doors selling membership like they used to do. I think the game should have been in Croke Park
Same as above really I'd say bring a few disposable BBQ's as they have an area out the back for it.
Not sure if you have to book the swimming pool but it's first class and make sure you don't miss out.
Depends on the kids ages what to book really. There's a pedal boat job if they're young or a kayak if a bit older which are good craic. It's first class you should really enjoy it.
I'm not sure on the prices for the week but I heard its expensive, Would the camps in France be similar in price or more expensive? No offence to Longford and its surrounding areas which are lovely but weather wise and campsites I'd rather pay that bit extra.. The price for a family of 4 in July is nearly £3000 at Centrepark in Longford
That seems expensive of the activities and food is extra.
Booked a week all inclusive in Turkey, July peak season £4500. Huge big resort waterpark etc.
I punched in the dates and that's what came up, I'm only saying this because as a family if you asked my adult kids now if they look back at their best holidays it was the parcs in France/Spain/Italy even better than the clatter of Disney hols, we did them for 2 weeks, Longford are looking nearly £3000 for a week!
St.Marys is a voluntary grammar , manages its own budget , charges a capital fee, pays for coaching expertise, DOF .Teachers are not what they use to be.
Most definitely agree with this. Then again they are probably under more pressure than before. Should counties not take control of coaching in these schools? I think St Mary's Magherafelt have a full time GAA coach - not sure who pays for it. It's resulted in a big upturn in their fortunes - albeit they were always competitive.
the annoying thing about the protocol is that 90% of the people giving out havent a clue what it is. Best case scenario is the EU makes some immaterial changes, let the Unionists sell it as a big win and the protocol remainsEmerson's account seems plausible. However, the problem is the malign presence of the Boris regime. A half responsible government in London would make a few changes, maybe harmonise some food standards, then allow the DUP sell this as a win so that they can go into the Executive. But this London government is not even half responsible.The EU aren't going to tolerate shite from London in the middle of a war.
Reasonable changes will be entertained.
I have seen graffiti saying "Trigger article 16".
The person inclined to write graffiti on a gable wall isn't the kind of person inclined to read an international treaty, let alone understand it.
While it's a good election result for Sinn Fein, it doesn't bring a border poll success any closer. The problem is that there is a much greater chance of a successful border poll if it isn't led by Sinn Fein. The numbers breakdown is approx 40-20-40 and the middle ground is where it will be won and lost. That together with the 33% of current non voters. Unionist politicians have done almost everything in their power to alienate the 20% middle ground with their decisions in recent years but there is still a lot of ground work to be done to convince a sufficient amount of these same Alliance voters to vote to change the status quo. This will be won and lost mostly on economics, health, education and the day to day stuff that matter to people. Therefore it is more important that SDLP or other shades of civic nationalism gets behind the preparatory work. Sinn Fein support for a UI is a given in the same way that DUP/TUV is a given on the unionist side.
an absolute exhibition from Canavan Og .....Unbelievable ability
Candidate Party Votes Vote (%) Change (%)
Jeffrey M. Donaldson DUP 19,586 43.1 -16.4
Sorcha Eastwood Alliance 13,087 28.8 17.7
Robbie Butler UUP 8,606 19.0 2.2
Ally Haydock * SDLP 1,758 3.9 -3.7
Gary McCleave * SF 1,098 2.4 -1.1
Gary Hynds * Con 955 2.1 1.1
Alan Love * UKIP 315 0.7 0.7
Bit of a risk here if Jeffery joins the assemble forcing a bi-election going on the 2019 results above.
FPTP election is the time to get behind alliance in such a constituency, still pissed though that places like Lagan valley and strangford are not represented by a nationalist and upper bann has only one SF MLA instead of 2
Turnout will be interesting.
So the Tories have shafted the DUP again.. On the night before the election you couldn’t write it lol
So-called ref accused him of using foul and abusive language towards him. I was there. I didn't hear it.
Eldest lad had confirmation on Friday past.
Arrived at the chapel for 5.45pm as requested. Service lasted from 6-7.45pm then there were a few group photos.
So because the priest wanted to ensure that everyone got the full ultra-repetitive mass experience as well as the full confirmation experience, all our young families and elderly grandparents were forced to sit, bored out of their f**king minds, for over two hours.
When someone reviews the demise of the Catholic Church in 50 years time, they’ll have an easy synopsis to “reveal”: once the Information Age wiped out all the bad eggs in the priest hood, the only ones left behind were those so utterly committed to the catholic mass, that they were unable see its very make up was driving people people away in masses.
Why get your wain confirmed. Mini wedding ?
To be honest with you, if I thought the wife would eventually forgive me, I’d excuse the rest of the litter from this ordeal.
Lol. Fair enough. I stopped going to mass bar maybe Easter and Xmas, love it Xmas Eve.
I wuold pick bits and pieces of morals and ethics from different religions and none
Tea had no true significance for hundreds of years and then Bang, along comes chocolate digestive’s. Throw a TV into the mix and I’m set for the evening.
Can a team meet each other
Eg - Tyrone v Derry again
