Seen that, the bus driver has reactions of a cat, split second swerve
I tend to think of myself as a one man wolfpack...

Jogger should get life, but after tens of thousands of £ are spent to bring him to justice he'll probably get community service!

I thought that was a Waterford Whispers story when I saw it first yesterday.

But this type of superstitious nonsense is all over Ireland. This gobshite is merely given public voice to it.

I grew up in rural Donegal, and there were certain trees (usually hawthorn) which couldn't be touched because they were "fairy" trees.

There was even a legend about some tree in the middle of Ballintra where every man who attempted to cut it down met their demise soon afterwards!

It's a relic of paganism
Which is just as good as any religion

Kenny Dalglish obviously cut down a fairy tree somewhere in 1990!

Why are you so obsessed with Liverpool StGalls?
It's a bit crazy to think that was your first thought when reading that article. You have a problem.

But sure didn't Kenny win the league with Blackburn after that?

A contact shared my LinkedIn post because his company uses Peter Canavan as a brand ambassador.
Someone commented on the post "why is terrorist propaganda allowed on LinkedIn".

That is appalling. It must be sickening to be accused of being a terrorist just because you are nationalist.

On a side note I thought there was no London in Tyrone.

He said no jokes! ;D
On a serious note it's sad to see there is still that element naked bigotry towards anything associated with nationalism.
