Quote from: lurganblue on March 12, 2024, 01:48:36 PMThere are no shortages of jobs going at the minute.  At least it curtails the "them foreigners coming over here and taking all our jobs" rhetoric/excuse.

they can have our jobs, it is the houses they take that are the problem

Have 'they' taken your job or your house or a house from anyone you know ? Genuine question

It is simple logic that if you allow in more immigrants than you build houses then you somebody is going to have problems getting a house. I'm quite comfortable and am not one of those people. In general, this debate seems to be unable to distinguish between the aggregate effect and situations of individuals.

So you're worried for others (us Irish with the great bloodline that will hopefully never get diluted by the bad foreigner's bloodline).. Helping out other folk who need our help isn't the issue, they are not your enemy. Why not worry and look out for those less fortunate than us?
The real enemy here looks very like you and me, not the unfortunate on the boats, not trans etc...

JOG2 I have a lot of respect for you and clicking on this page I looked at the colour coded quotes and I thought it was you that was being racist and I was disappointed....

But looking back I see it was you that was not and you were being what I always thought about you....

And my faith in you restored!!!

So I fire the company photos and text and they put it into certain layouts and I pick the best? How much would it cost?

I have actually started myself on Canva. I have used canva for posters and local programmes for years and getting better as years go on. I've got until November so I think I might give it a wee rattle. The wife says it's good and she tells me straight!

Quote from: armaghniac on March 15, 2024, 04:47:02 PMI suppose the question is what is mostly in the booklet: text, drawn images, photographs, tables etc?

What program/software did you use to create booklets so you can just go into a printing office and hand them it?

 I have used the free version of Canva for years for making gaa programmes and it's been great but would Canva Pro be good. They have excellent templates which are not available  on basic Canva .

Is it worth the 100 quid?

Thanks in advance

Watched The Gift on iPlayer the other night.

A terrific film, well worth a watch.

Just started watching hunger games with the kids, on the fourth one now.

Ah Milltown. We get it alright. There are plenty out there who don't get even half of what we teachers get. Be thankful for what you got and stay humble.

Celtic Park was never the problem..........

It was the supporters who didn't want to travel to watch Derry in Celtic Park that was.

Quote from: Wildweasel74 on February 04, 2024, 05:47:40 PMDerry need sort out the right foot free taker, easy one missed today due to this, a man who can consistently  score 45, learn Conor McCloskey to actually shoot (He was in position to score 3 pts from close enough range)Reserve keeper nowhere near as good as Bradley from Glen as Back up.When McGuigan has a bad game he really does, no in-between. Derry still need a target man to slot in between McGuigan and Murphy.
Jesus WW you have to be one of the most negative supporters I've come across.

I've never said this before..........

But HiMucker is right

Automatic custodial sentence.
Fines starting at £1000 for verbal abuse and upwards
If you're on any sort of benefits you automatically lose them.

Should carry a very high punishment. Absolutely no call for it.

Force them to go out and get a job, that will fairly put the frighteners on them.

Really worry for society at times, for every pair of scum bags that get together and have wains they are raising  people with the same morals and sense of entitlement when it comes to benefits, housing and relationship with work or lack of.


This is so true. Monkey see, monkey do and all that. You can write the future of a lot of children by looking at the parents bringing them up.

I used to think going to become a teacher I could change kids lives. Nearly impossible.
