Folks if any of you women/men are looking tickets for Sat night's fight night in the Armagh City Hotel send me a PM and I'll arrange to get you tickets...I know they're a bit expensive at £30 but it'll be good craic seeing me on my back...and some might say "well worth it"

P.S. I've had the flu from last Thursday and it's not great preparation but I'll just have to do more hugging than punching...lol

as i says on your facebook, why is your rotten face not on the poster for the event?

We are on next Monday evening,

big eamonn mc was unlucky but impossible to beat all of the feckers. which one were you harold?

Listening to five live. No he didn't celebrate. City fans also applauded.. Fair play cos I wouldn't be clapping a Barry goal!!

Think there'll be plenty of goals in this game

That list of towns shows me that I was correct in not watching this tripe. Black holes...

And I won't even mention George ffs they can't top naming an airport after that tube anyway

Fair play to the harps minors today. Cleaned the clans out round the middle and well deserved their win. Wasn't many plus points for the clans at all.

Good luck to the harps in the the rest of the competition.

i can see this thread going down like a lead balloon 

[also it made me miss the first half of the celtic match]

fuckin bank machine eating your card for no good reason, the bastid'n thing was trying to push the card out buckled... rage! having to cancel the card and order a new one.

Every cloud...........

you could be right. second half was bad enough

its good to see a buzz back in the county final.  its been quite a while since i can remember so many neutrals looking forward to the final. just hope the two teams dont freeze like the minor final recently...

i take it the minor championship matches are going to be rattled off right and quick so their final can be before the senior game?

It takes an average of 37 days for an eye lash to grow before it falls out.

Mt. Everest is not actually the highest mountain in the world.  I forget the name of the highest from bottom top.

I think your thinking of mount Chimborazo in Ecuador. That peak is furthest from the centre of the earth because of the way the earth is fatter near the equator. But furthest from the earths surface is Everest.

aye everest is still the highest but not the biggest

[Want to read The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas (Have put off watching the film until I get round to it)]

Terry Pratchett is a very, very funny man.

Agree with some of what's been mentioned, don't agree with some, but Id like to add CJ Sansom, particularly if you enjoyed name of the rose. His Shardlake series is brilliant.

Yep, love all the discworld books. Extremely funny, and each a stand alone book so ya can just pick any one up and read it.

Was a major fan of LOTR, and Pratchett was recommended to me, they're kids books but readable for adults, which I didn't find with Harry Potter - just too childish.

On the other end of the scale, Mario Puzo is a great storyteller, and each of his books catapults you right into Sicily, or that culture, be it in NY, or wherever...

Recently have enjoyed A Curious Story About The Dog In the Nighttime (mentioned above) and The Book Thief. The latter was a very good read, and really original.

Want to read The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas (Have put off watching the film until I get round to it) and The Kite Runner.


Has anyone read Twilight series? Know a few girls who are crazy bout it. When I said I had never heard of it, they looked at me as if I had two heads!

very good book. film didnt do it justice IMO

My boyfriend is a hairy beast and i call him the wolfman so thats why I decided to support this great team. GO WOLFS!

good lad. nice to see you taking my advice on board.

did you just like the name? as good a reason as any...

Why would I be jealous? I don't support anyone I just like watching all the games.

get off the fence and pick one then... 

[Terry Pratchett - Discworld series]

Terry Pratchett - Discworld series
