Bouncy castles are frowned apon by the GAA, seriously! Girls in wet t-shirts on bouncy castles would probably be a massive no no as well!

i think every club will be praying for good weather on Sunday, must get the priest doing our club mass on Saturday to put an extra wee word in with the big fella.

It will be a pity if the celebrations were marred by rain as I doubt if many have a plan B

We could start by putting a fada on the a in Lá?

from met.ie
Cloudy tomorrow in parts of Munster and south Leinster with further rain or drizzle at times, but some good dry periods developing later. Brighter over the rest of the country with sunny periods and just a few scattered showers. Highest temperatures between 11 and 14 degrees, coolest near east and south coasts. Freshening east to northeasterly winds.

Not so bad. The likes of Sligo or Down should be OK, bar a shower or two and a cool breeze.

Norf Tyrone · May 10, 2009, 11:24:14 AM

stpauls · May 10, 2009, 07:58:20 PM

the child of prague certainly did its job today alright!! a fantastic day weather wise, as well as a great day in the club, a fantastic success.
there is also talk of it becoming an annual event!! not sure i could handle all the work that went into it every year mind!!

Square Ball · May 10, 2009, 08:03:21 PM

Great day all round here as well, hundreds in Cherryvale enjoying the craic, games and sideshows.

Visited Three Clubs in Down today, and events while well supported were very low key and unimaginative, there was general air of we are here because we feel we should be. What was needed was a pageant.

Brilliant day in Silverbridge in bright sunshine. Artane Band parade was huge, plenty of competitions and a great exhibition of memorabilia. Full marks to all who made it happen.

Couldnt be there but was just going to post that I heard it was great day and the Artane band couldnt be commended enough. Hope they enjoyed our hospitality too before moving on to rougher areas of south armagh.

I'm looking forward to the opening of the time capsule already!

I think an annual thing would get very stale very quickly.

An unreal day in Dundrum yesterday for La na gClub.

We got good coverage in the Irish News today with a couple of articles on our pitch being dedicated to Jack Kielty.

There was a massive turnout for such a small club and its days like these which make you proud to be a member of the GAA.
