Philomena Begley has always been a fond friend of Shane's, she has been very I'll recently so I think some of the comments here are a little unfair.
Shane himself is in far better nick than he was say 5 years ago, he is in a wheelchair because he broke his pelvis, he has been walking little by little over the last month. Shane is in great form with himself and is happier than he has been for some time, considering the lifestyle that Shane lived for 30 plus years and for someone whos obituary was being written 30 years ago I think he is doing ok for a man turning 62 in less than two weeks time.Comment

I don't think any comments are actually directed at Shane or Philomena, rather at RTE and how their decision that the best manner to pay homage to Shane, The Pogues and Fairytale of NY was via that performance last night.Originally posted by premierstone View Post
Having both involved significantly isn't the issue but I think it could have been delivered in a more flattering manner.Comment

Listened to a piece with Mark Steel about an argument he had with a prominent member of the Green party
She decided to run in a seat that labour only won by about 300+ votes last time, he said to her that
she was handing the seat to the Tories and labour would implement more Green policy than the Tories
Her reply was that Labour couldn't win the seat on their own
She was all about defeating the Tories
When he pointed out that her vote wouldn't be added to the labour vote to defeat the Tories she stopped replying to him
Tories won by about 1000
She got 1500 votes

Presumably 120 years ago the fledgling Labour party would have been accused of the same thing, no chance of winning but taking votes from the ideologically closest party and handing the win to the common enemy.Originally posted by Elshambles View PostListened to a piece with Mark Steel about an argument he had with a prominent member of the Green party

You'll never grow to be in a position to win unless you continually contest these elections.
Electoral system is terrible obviously.Comment

I don't see how Shane outliving the death predictions makes him remarkable. His body of work does. 62 isn't old and despite his apparent hip injury . He acts elderly . It's sad. He's a legend but don't be using his avoidance of the grim reaper as anything to admire . Plenty of poor feckers in the same boat. He is the product of his lifestyle .Comment

Thanks for the advice, duly noted. Now go back to trying to be funny....Comment

Big fan of Cuban with the Dallas Mavericks, one of the first owners to take a very active involvement in player welfare, huge investment in sports science & analytics plus very savvy in the past number of years.Originally posted by Denny Crane View Post

Just spent an hour organising my wine cupboard pre-Xmas. Put a lot of good bottles to the top of the pile, then a pile of crappy bottles as presents for people who don't know wine.
Wonderful time well spent.
Also found a box of jars and cans of French deliciousness. Coq au vin de Cahors for dinner so!"We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."Comment

Anyone see David Keenan live? Just discovered his music today. Nice to see he hasn't lost his Dundalk twang
On Shane McGowan couple of neighbours and another bloke I know supported Shane McGowan last night. They play with him regularly actually, must have a chat with them over the holidays. Same bloke used to call over to my home place in his teens to play folk and ballads with my oul lad after helping fix up his old BSA Bantam bike.Comment

I'd say Ionapaul loved that, some comeback at the end. Great win by Ulster last night too.

Apparently their chairman (the cheating Wray) has been told he is not welcome at any other Premiership ground. In a sport like rugby, that's even more of an indictment than the points and monetary fine.
Must be awful being a Munster fan these last 7/8 years. They keep putting everything into Europe but consistently just don't quite have the smarts to win the big games."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."Comment

Racing-Munster in Paris though. Can't see Munster getting a result.Originally posted by shrapnel View Post
Hilarious how lopsided the group draws can be. Northampton will probably get out of Leinster's group, despite being not very good."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."Comment

Not even a bonus point against the bottom team in the Aviva Premiership.
Shows the gulf between the leagues I guess.Comment

Ok after all the chat in here I forced myself to watch the late late show today. Pat Shortt, wtf. Turned that off. Best lol of the night was when soup run blonde lady said she couldn't phantom why something happened instead of fathom without a hint that she might be wrong. Shane McGowan, sad to see him dribbling and hardly able to move. Still witty tho as he had a few good one liners. Philomena Begley, meh. Probably afraid to fuck up and not used to the autocue, would give her the benefit of the doubt that she was reading a line ahead and she fucked up. Being able to fast forward should be the only way to watch telly. What a shit show.
Also watched Graham Norton today and the contrast in the shows is unreal. That's my boring Saturday summed up.Comment

Maybe they simply don't trust Hanrahan's kicking?Originally posted by shrapnel View Post
He missed a simple kick to put them 9-3 up. And missed an easy drop goal at the death vs Racing to win that game too."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."Comment

Try 3, bit of a famine there and the minor inconvenience of a Northampton try but back on track."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."Comment

Shouldn't really matter. Good position and same result either way. Probability of getting the kick vs probability of getting a try must be massively bigger.Originally posted by Raoul Duke III View PostComment

Yeah, special day at the Sportsground. Was quite funny, was sitting in the open stand this time around and this lad wandered in for the 2nd half and sat nearby; probably had been in the terrace for the first half. Anyhow, he was one of these whiny ref-is-always-wrong types, very moany; when Gloucester scored their last try he angrily exclaimed it was all over, no way back, got up and headed off!Originally posted by Raoul Duke III View Post
Obviously I thought that yeah, Connacht are unlikely to get anything out of this but feck it, it's not over yet. And what a final 5 minutes! Ah, the joy of supporting Connacht
