Got delivery of a signed Dublin jersey today.The woman is a mad Dubs fan and is also 30 in a few weeks so i got her this as some of her prezzie...(also taking her on holiday)
Might hold onto the jersey though and wait and see how well the jackeens do in the championship as it could be worth a fair few quid on Ebay
So thanks to David Henry who got it signed for me..

Well i think so anyways,it lets you send an email to yourself to be delivered any date in the future,Also there is some mad emails that you can read that people have sent to themselves

As the conveyer belt of talent that is Laois underage football keeps turning, Laois are now going for their Third Leinster Minor Final win in 4 years.
This by all reports is one of the best minor teams to come out of Laois
They have already inflicted heavy defeats on Dublin and Offaly
I don't know a whole lot about this Carlow team but am delighted to see them in the Final,but going on Laois's previous games plus that they have a few of the U/21 team that won the Leinster and just missed out on winning the All Ireland i would expect Laois to win handy enough

I have been thinking of getting one on my shoulder for some years now,don't know why i want one but have always wanted too
I know there is a certain amount of stereotyping of people who have tattoos but i know Accountants and Gardai etc who have them
Has anyone got one or thinking of getting one?

I bought the new hurling management game today but when i try to install it on my laptop i keep getting this message


F:\Install
Data error (cyclic redundancy check).


Anyone any ideas?
It's says on the box that one of the System Requirements for the game is Windows XP.
I have Windows Vista on my laptop could this be the problem?
Any advice or help would be great
Thanks

I know this was talked about before but can't find the thread,according to this website it is to be released today

[ # ] New Hurling Computer Game 
June 13th, 2007

A new hurling managment computer game is about to be launched by a company called Tailteann Games. The game, called "Bainisteoir – Hurling©", is due for release on June 28th.

One of the most impressive aspects of it is that they have the real life player names - according to their website they have " the 32 Irish Inter-County, New York and London Senior Hurling panels, which comprise of over 1,000 real-life Hurling stars, including D.J Carey, Ken McGrath, Brian Lohan and Eugene Cloonan". This is one aspect that seriously let down the other GAA offering out there, Gaelic Football on the Playstation, it didn't have any real players.

The company is apparently based in Nenagh in Tipperary, it's great to see a local Irish software company producing a quality GAA product. Their website seems to be still under development but they have background on themselves and the product on their "About" page. http://tailteanngames.com/2.about.php

Wrong Mark Kenny released from Mountjoy
  Friday, 22 June 2007 22:18

The Director General of the Prison Service, Brian Purcell, has ordered an investigation into an incident last Wednesday when the wrong prisoner was released from Mountjoy.

35-year-old Mark Kenny was released from Mountjoy jail two days ago - by mistake.

Gardaí have yet to find him.

AdvertisementKenny was not due for release until 2010, but he was let out instead of another Mark Kenny who was serving three months for a traffic offence and was due for release last Wednesday.

Prison officials say there were a number of remarkable similarities between the two Mark Kennys.

Both looked alike in their photographs, both signed their names in block capitals, both had similar appendix scars and both had tattoos with the letters E and R on their bodies.

However, the two men had different dates of birth and prison numbers.


The mistake was discovered just after 5pm Wednesday evening, some 20 minutes after the wrong Mark Kenny left the prison.

Blair is ready to convert, says Catholic priest
By Jonathan Petre, Religion Correspondent
Last Updated: 1:25am BST 15/10/2004



A priest who regularly conducts Mass for Tony Blair and his family refuelled speculation yesterday that the Prime Minister intends becoming a Roman Catholic.

Fr Timothy Russ, whose parish includes Chequers, disclosed that Mr Blair, an Anglican, had raised the question of conversion with him and said: "If you ask me do you think he wants to become a Catholic, I would say yes."

Fr Russ indicated, however, that he did not believe that Mr Blair would take such a step while Prime Minister and suggested that he had "some way to go" on important moral issues.

Mr Blair, a High Church Anglican, regularly attends Mass at Chequers with his wife Cherie and three children, who are Catholics, and he took part in a private service in the Vatican during a recent visit to Rome.

He has quelled speculation that he might become Britain's first Catholic prime minister by insisting that has no plans to convert, and has said that he only goes to Catholic services so that he and his family can worship together.

But he has worshipped on his own at Westminster Cathedral and he has been criticised for breaching Canon law, which states that except in exceptional circumstances, a non-Roman Catholic should not receive Catholic communion.

Fr Russ, the parish priest of the Immaculate Heart of Mary in nearby Missenden, Berks, told a newspaper that Mr Blair had raised the issue of conversion over lunch.

"When he asked me, it was in the abstract," the priest said. "It wasn't, 'Can I become a Catholic?' but, 'Can the Prime Minister of Britain be a Catholic?' He said Mr Blair would be "free to consider the matter" after he had left office. "But even if he resigns or whatever, I doubt he has the 'necessary' to join the Catholic Church.

"It is always a work of grace," said Fr Russ.

"He would probably have a lot going for him, but he also has to change a lot."

The Catholic Church declined to comment, but Fr Russ's disclosure of private conversations with Mr Blair will have dismayed senior churchmen as they expect priests to be discreet.

Downing Street also refused to be drawn, although a spokesman said the matter was a private one. But the disclosures are fresh evidence that Mr Blair, who is possibly the most religious holder of the post since William Gladstone, has a growing fascination with the Catholic faith.

Much of his political philosophy has been influenced by the social teachings of the Church although he is also an admirer of the maverick German theologian Hans Kung, who has repeatedly clashed with the Vatican.

Francis Beckett, one of the authors of a new biography about him, The Blairs and Their Court, claims that he is, in effect, a Roman Catholic already.

Although Britain has never had a Catholic prime minister, there is no constitutional bar to Mr Blair converting while in Downing Street.

However, constitutional historians have said that such a development could prove awkward and could affect the relationship between Church and State.

As Prime Minister, Mr Blair makes recommendations to the Queen on the appointment of Church of England bishops.

Church spokesmen insisted, however, that this was a State rather than religious duty, and the Prime Minister's religious affiliations need not be a difficulty.




 

I have awful problems with my feet,they itch and the skin between the toes breaks etc etc
I have tried everything all the powders and creams but nothing helps
I obviously wash!! so it's not that and im a bit of a freak when it comes to socks as i love new or fresh ones and could change a couple of times a day so thats not the problem either..
I do wear runners a lot so that could be a problem
Anyone else have tis problem?

Gonna start a fresh with this as the last one I started was in the first username i had before someone deleted my account

Both teams end on 76 points but I think it's very unfair way to win the league,Barcelona have a better goal difference but Madrid win because of the head to head meetings between themsleves and Barcelona


  Team         Played       PTS
1 Real Madrid   38         76  +26
2 Barcelona      38         76  +45
 

So the main semi final pairing is now known it's Wexford to play Laois on July 1st
Not sure what to expect from Wexford,after Waterford beating them one would have thought they wouldn't go to far in Leinster,but by all accounts they were good enough today so even though i expect Laois to win i still be a bit nervous
Roll on a Midlands derby for Leinster Final Laois v Offaly

I just got emailed a load of electrical drawings for work i have to price,I have downloaded them all but can't open any of them,I think they are pdf files what program do i need to open these type of files?
Thanks

I bought a Dvd recorder a few months back but only used it for first time for Champions League Final(which i quickly deleted )
Im gonna start using it now for Laois's championship campaign,But I have just discovered it only records onto DVD - rewritable DVD'S and i also just Discovered my Laptop only plays DVD + Rewritable DVD'S.
I was hoping that i could do a bit of editing on some of the things i record ie add titles and delete ad brakes etc,but now as my laptop only plays the + Rewritable DVD's i suppose i can't or  does anyonw know if there is a way around this other than buying a new DVD recorder

This is going to be very interesting this year some big teams in it
Already we have

Kildare
Mayo
Fermanagh
Cavan
Limerick
Westmeath

Am i right in saying it's a open draw? Really out of that lot they are all capable of beating each other
