All Ireland Scór na nÓg 2010

[TacadoirArdMhacha]

I would be badly missed, I dance the sets  always on after the novelty act and its never just the 10 minutes either is it.  There's nearly always more than one novelty act. 

For a quizzer you don't exactly inspire confidence with your powers of recall.  How did you answer your own questions?

Ryan Carson scored 0-6 against Down in his Ulster championship debut last year. Who does he play for? yes aye a lad, handy with a ball, thought he was excellent as well.  What was the question?

Which leader of the 1916 rebellion was executed sitting in a chair due to his wounds?  The one with the moustache but wouldn't swear to it.

Which former intercounty footballer is the chief of staff of the Irish defence forces? Tidy uniformed fella, I think there's a couple of boys from our club could do it better though.


Jackass

Funny enough I was concentrating on getting my questions right rather than remembering the other ones.

Quiz: Silverbridge - performed superbly, only missed one question all night

What was the question that they missed?

Well I can't know for sure, but it was a team question. I'd have thought it was the one about the Hill considered to be the centre of Ireland in pre-Christian times.

Well what about the Silverbridge Novelty Act winning the County Title on Sunday night in St. Anthony's !!  It was hilarious, the actors were great  :)even Jarlath Burns got a part, is he trying to take the limelight from his lovely daughter Megan for an All-Ireland Title, time will tell !!! oh and well done to the Quiz Team, once again they are though with a Murphy and Reel Team..well done to Dearbhla Bennett from Mullaghbawn who got through in the Solo Singing   

Can anyone answer this :- Has there ever been a Father and Son who have won a County Medal in Senior and Junior Scor, respectively?

I'm sure that there are loads and loads of them, including some in my own club.

Well myself and the Da were on a winning quiz team together back in the day - I believe we beat Laureleye's team in the County Final.

History has been made at Dublin's Trinity College with the instillation of a set of GAA goalposts at College Park allowing Gaelic games to be played on the city centre campus for the first time in its 418-year history.

Well I know I wasn't dreaming (in 1992) and I wasn't alone watching it.  As far as I remember it was an intervarsity-match - where did Giles go to College?

UCD I think

I was at that match too, think it was 1993 though BB's. Giles was in UCD and it was the colours gaelic football match. TCD actually won that match. Haven't beaten UCD too many times since I'd think.

Could have been '93 alright Seanie, the Alzheimers is well in train at this stage.  I was working in TCD at the time, and the match allowed me to avoid going back to work straightway after lunch.

Sorry for being a little off topic with this but missed the replies last week. Was a student there at the time myself. Turk is also correct in mentioning the plural. The 1995 edition of the colours match was also played in College Park with the visitors inspired by Giles at centre back and Mick O'Byrne (I think) taking the spoils.

Recitation is about a man who takes HRT and becomes somewhat ladylike in his characteristics. Its very good although there were two against her from my own club who must have run her very close in the Armagh final.

The SIlverbridge Novelty Act gets a good laugh from the crowd though both times I was at the Scór I was backstage waiting to go on ourselves so I haven't really seen it myself. Jarlath Burns and his brother Colman who used to be Mayor of Newry are both in it.
