It just "so happens" that 30% of the Irishmen I've met over the last 45 years have been rat-assed at any given moment...but one person's lifelong experiences are not a true guide..I know that.


What next? The "Scots" drink excessively compared to The Italians?:X...make that :))

Keef, don't mention the ruddy "Engleeschers"...ruddy hooligans the lot of 'em...I'd put them all on an Island with all The Irish and Scots and Welsh and let them get on with it....

I know, I know....used to see them in Benidorm, Marbela, Ibiza, Arenal and all the rest back in The 1970's/1980's on my Summer Holidays...at least The Irish and Scots can take their drink at Football Matches abroad though.


On a semi-serius point, they put The English to shame on their travels and are wanted back everywhere, quite rightly..

Until they become violently ill due to over exposure to ginger hair.

Actually, the "Irish" are NOT my favourite people right at the moment due to 2 of their number over the weekend.



First one had a bet with me, at the last possible moment, to Win ?500 and was as drunk as a skunk and I was so empthatic to agree which animal he had backed that I did not have time to "hedge"..it Won..


Unbelievably fast forward 24 hours and same "last minute-last race" scenario where another Irishman who spent half the time being propped up and the other half, physically falling over backed the last Winner to Win ?550 and again I was so keen to establish and agree which animal he backed that, once again, I could not "hedge"....


Needless to say that also Won.


Back in the White City Greyhound Days from The 1950's onwards The Irish were the majority of the crowd and they "as a Group" are phenomenal Gamblers, absolutely phenonomenalB)


I must go to Cheltenham one day, as I'm told, constantly, that its a fabulous experience.

Have had my 2 pints of Guiness - made it back to work without temptation to stay out all afternoon and risk losing job, house, family etc, thats more self discipline than I normally muster on St Patricks day so am feeling rightly proud of self. Will buy a couple of cans of guinness on the way home to quieltly savour in front of tv, a quiet St Patricks Day.

Indeedy.


I would like to wish all of the lovely Paddies on the forum a happy St Patricks day. I am sure you are all having a jolly day here on the mainland but wishing you were at home dancing at the crossroads and eating Mikado biscuits and Tayto crisps. This country was built by the Irish and their super doopery building skills. God bless you all.

Um - Mikado biscuits - you know I did not realise these were Irish DM - therefore have just realised I have not seen them for the duration of my 20 years on "the mainland". Thought they had just stopped making them. I thought it was Kings crisps in the south and Tayto in the north, is that right or is that an urban myth.

    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
    • Also, just to add, the threat to kill someone's dog and try to kick it, is an additional extremely unpleasant layer. I have noticed a lot of the burst water balloons lying around in the park too- that is not great for the environment either.
    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him
