I'd say there will be boys out, maybe not the same level as the south. If the Brits were any use they'd be out as well.

They are a rabble. So what if the protests were cancelled, people are noticing these losers.

Just to come back on a reply to my earlier post. The war officially started on Feb 28th according to news reports. So a lad who can buy kit like that should be in a position to have some resilience to economic issues.

I will say that contractors do need big machines and the tractors cost a fortune, but you don't always need the biggest one or to buy a new one every year or two. That's something that the Grassmen fans don't seem to agree with mind.



them mysterons are always killing me but im grand after a few days.sickenin aul dose all the same.

One thing that might come from the protests, wouldn't it be great to see more predestined areas in the city centre like O'Connell and College Green and see a bit of life rather than traffic. We all love those big European city squares.  :)

Mind you, we'd likely see the same protests about woke and leftie green policies and the right to drive from door to door!

Long term there needs to be a focus on renewable energies like solar and wind etc so that we aren't held to ransom by a crazy old war criminal like Trump/Putin/Netenyahu, thats twice in 4 years we've seen ridiculous price hikes due solely to egotistical old c***ts.

So not the governments fault...

Spain seems to have avoided the worst of the hikes because they have diversified the sources of their Oil imports.

Would seem to be a smart enough idea to avoid issues like this is the near future.

Should be grand if you pay the tolls in Chinese Yuan.

The south relies too much on the brits for energy, how could you ever negotiate anything with them if they threaten to cut of your oil/diesel supply.

Most Councilloers are now opposed to wind turbines

Our geniuses want to pass a motion banning them in the County.

Play the game and play it fairly

Sorry buts that just bollocks. It's not like he bought the item outright with cash in the bank. It's almost certain to have been bought on finance, provided by the manufacturer to facilitate the purchase. In most cases there isn't even a upfront payment, it's just straight repayments.
