If you parked the yoke and came back to find a pool of muddy water, you might be a bit annoyed. That wouldn't even happen in Clones.

That would put a crimp on your day, right enough.
Looks like the buck beside him was half expecting it too!

Some 2nd half.
Are Tyrone a confirmed 3rd seed now?

I think any referendum would need to be projected say 15 years or so in the event of a yes to unification.
There would need to be time to get things aligned, but you would imagine significant EU support and funding would be made available.  If Brexit means Brexit for the long term,  then it would be in the EU's interest to ensure that a United Ireland would be a comparative success.
Identity politics would be so complex.  It's hard to visualise Sammy Wilson or Jim Allister in Dáil Éireann, and when the likes of Nigel or Arlene won't have the prospect of a House of Lords as a fallback, it might be more difficult to convince the politicians rather than the electorate.

So relieved with that, was afraid we'd get blitzed early and then steamrolled.  Some super displays, and we did all the negative stuff that needs to be done, whether you like it or not.  Mayo are still going to be a force, and for now we'll enjoy this and look forward to Galway.  Diarmuid Murtagh is an absolute diamond.

Could we not had a orange lane? Lol

You could, but every time you'd ask for progress, they'd just say no...

Eamonca,
I hope everything works out for you, and there's good advice already for you from people much better placed than me.  I blew the one real relationship in my life from falling between two stools, one trying to create the perfect relationship,  and the other trying to still be one of the lads.  I didn't handle the ending well for a number of years, and included an uncomfortably long flirtation with alcohol immediately afterwards.  I've adapted since and accepted that I'm likely to grow old and die alone, but I still keep my pipe dream of meeting the future Mrs (Blank) and being married with kids that will play county and go to college and all that (I keep it filed beside playing for United, winning the Euromillions, and others).
Counselling and professional guidance is a really positive step.  My tuppence worth, for what it might be worth, is to balance focus on the positives as well as the negatives.  Yes,  there are issues to resolve.  But you obviously both love each other- the text shows that from her part, and you have said and shown as much.  Get a babysitter in, and go on a date like you used to at the start of your relationship, and make it a fixture, where any issue is parked or out of bounds for the night..  Writing down issues is important,  but so is listing what made you fall in love in the first place.  You have invested a lot in each other.  Ye have children together.  While it may seem like ye might bring out the worst in each other from time to time, ye also bring out the best in each other.
It's not a solution to all ills, but I think it would be a very rewarding use of a small amount of time that might otherwise be lost brooding or fretting.
I sincerely hope it all works out.

Happy to get the points there, lucky not to have conceded a few goals in the first half.  Got a few lucky frees that broke momentum sometimes for Armagh, probably played the ref that little bit better.  Hopefully one more result to be sure to be sure staying up, a consistent run in Div one can only improve us.

RIP, saddened to hear this.  Always came across as a decent skin, a loss to this forum, but that pales into insignificance compared to the loss to family and friends.
