Quote from: johnnycool on August 14, 2026, 03:44:18 PMBUT that was a serious mess made by the local vets and whoever else from DAERA who allowed the cull in such a manner.
I believe our chief vet was out of the country on holiday at the time of the incident.

Sun coming and going in Lurgan, but when it's out, the little viewing yoke that I made after watching the video on RTE website is awesome to look at it.
Proper Blue Peter.

Really enjoying the show. That all-female group was brilliant.

Told ourselves the kids would be a total pain at it, but having wandered round at lunchtime the past week while working, I'm ditching the excuses and heading in tomorrow afternoon with them. Might bring the old feadóg mhór with me and join in!

Quote from: trueblue1234 on July 19, 2026, 02:56:42 PMThat video of the girl in Strabane getting bullied. Shocking stuff. Poor girl had lost her parents and brother I believe too.
Horrible to think of the level of things some people have to put up with. I see the video that the foster parent put up as he was getting no where with the psni or school has been taken down now. Hope they are as quick to take action against the girl in the video too. Hopefully this need to video such actions is starting to backfire on the perpetrators as it's evidence of what actually happened.
Couldn't stop thinking about this when I saw the video. Horrific.

If you're selling an air fryer when you leave, be sure to let me know

We're going to Cambrils Park for two weeks in July, have heard great things for the kids.
It was a mistake though, joining related Facebook groups that seem to be populated by Irish mammies who are there or going. My feed is full of people selling their air fryer or asking if the dodgy jersey shop has the latest Carlow jersey. I am slightly petrified I'll be surrounded by people I know!

Anyone trying to or succeeded in getting Ryder Cup tickets?

I imagine that, as the waiting list has frozen, they've all gone by now.

This is fantastic. We have loved following the journey, sometimes felt nervous for you, but learned a lot.

Happy birthday!

Quote from: Puckoon on February 19, 2026, 06:18:04 PMSome of you may have seen the avalanche report out in Truckee/Tahoe which is close to where I live. Scandalous decision making by the tour guides and the back skiiers themselves. Avalanche warning in place since Sunday AM and they still took a chance on Tuesday. One of the rescue team found their spouse amongst the deceased. Heartbreaking stuff

We've had about a foot and a half at my house, perhaps around 5600ft above sea level. Donner pass expected to receive around 4ft
I'd heard that the rescue team was searching for the spouse of one of their own, but didn't realise that it was they who actually found them.

The Donner Pass and Donner Party always fascinates me in a macabre sort of way.
