Cold shower is the ticket! Though its times like these I wish I hadnt ripped out the bath and replaced it with a shower! An ice cold bath would be just whats needed at the end of some of these days!

The sports news slot on the Pat Kenny programme says RTÉ are getting calls castigating them for claiming Graeme McDowell as Irish. They didn't say from whom the calls came, but Kenny seemed to imply that they were claiming he's British, which suggestion he debunked by pointing out that Britain is that other island to the east of us. He's UK-ish but definitely not British, said Pat. And anyway, he plays for Ireland.

When RTE announce this sort of petty crap while not announcing honest complaints it grinds my gears.

You have to wonder who's listening to Pat Kenny's show and getting insulted by them calling McDowell Irish

By virtue of the fact that I probably have something similar - why?

I put this on the world cup thread already, but after Gary Lineker said tonight that Uraguay vs South Korea would be a great draw for England to get in the quarter finals, it really grinded my gears..
