Ah sure m8, better to happen now than way down the line when you think ya love the girl and she was too much of a pansy to say it wasn't mutual. Sure at least you got us ipb lads!
In saying that though, fuck her, what a bitch. Run her down with a bicycle and piss in her hair.Go big or go homeless.

headsetgate... The new story out of NFL. This follows two other disputes affecting the patriots "Deflategate" and "Spygate".
I really wish Americans stop attaching gates to anything vaguely scandalous. Getting very irritating and totally devalue the original gate.No beast so fierce but knows some touch of pity, but I know none, therefore am no beast.

I am secretary of local fishing club and sometimes it pisses me right off when members dont show support after I struggle to get sponsors. Posted a drunken rant on our private FB page. Dont want to offend either. Did I get balance right?
Just want to say sorry about the reschedule of xxxxxxx Cup. It wasnt taken lightly. I spoke with manager of xxxxxx a couple weeks ago and said numbers would be between 10-20 ppl attending.Last evening (Fri) 5pm I was rung by xxxxxx asking about choice of free food ( chicken wings/sausage rolls/ cocktail sausages/ sandwiches/tea/coffee) and some confirmation of numbers so food could be orginised. Also to confirm timings of private bar/barman as requested 7.30pm to 10.30pm. I asked them if it was OK to give numbers etc at 10pm Friday night as I had to wait on members booking in. This was agreed. By 9.30pm I had 8 members booked in to fish and not all of them were attending weigh in. I am sorry but I will not embarass myself or the club and turn up at xxxxxx with max of 7 members but likely 4-6 members and have them provide food and bar staff and likely as per usual take a couple drinks and leave after food and presentation. I rang them just before 10pm and cancelled citing Health and Safety for boat users on Lough with up to 40mph gusts required the cancellation. I didnt tell them we didnt have the support of members. I decided we are to fish this competition Sunday instead. I did this as its too late to arrange another date and weather is OK on Sunday but wont be held in xxxxxx at such short notice . As 6 of the 8 ppl booked in were from 'this neck of the woods' I will be having weigh in at xxxxxxxxx. If majority had been from EKN end it would have been the xxxxxxxx Bar. As expected some were happy and others not so. Thats the way it is. So to summarise xxxxxxxx Cup now will be Sunday 13th Sept with weigh in xxxxxx 8pm. Booking in as per normal. I understand that weather and Lough fishing bad had a major effect on numbers. If you want to discuss this with me further I will be in xxxxxxx 8pm Sunday for weigh in.

We thought we had a quiet little corner of the web here but we clearly don't so that has to be a censor of our comments. It's disappointing as I'd love to know the story behind it all. Despite being a good friend of GAB I haven't asked him for a single detail. I can read between the lines and I leave it at that. Id also love to post some career stuff that I have going on myself as it would give people a laugh but you just cant as this place is too widely read and things boomerang back on you.‘IF YOU had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.” Genghis Khan

If someone does something bad, seemingly stupid especially given their position, then why shouldn't they take some flak for it? I'm not suggesting I would go running off to tattle on anyone who did anything, but you have to expect someone would. Would you have the same opinion if he wasn't a mate?
I remember the rag2gar satellite win where he lost his ticket. I mean you could say it was pretty low of whoever it was who told on him, but he did cheat so it's not like it was an unfair ending.
Also, good luck with the baby coming home!

Are we basically saying unless you post a detailed account of what happened you can't post here?? I don't know maybe we are and I'm 100% not objective in this case so there's that.
I liked Rag2gars posts and he was never a mate. I like GABs posts. Do we lose something if we keep a moral high ground? I'd like to see DannyDiamond back posting here if I'm honest and he was never a mate either. I get enough whiter than white stuff in my work and I like the whiff of cordite around here occasionally.
Hearing about the crazy shit people do and chortling away is part of the fun of IPB for me and maybe being part of the audience facilitates that poor moral behaviour but I'm only human.
It's a big part of why I used to play poker actually. Mixing with criminals and scumbags and people of the highest moral fibre. Basically all sorts. In no other sphere of my life would I mix with such an eclectic group and its quite liberating as well as eye opening. Living in a bubble is very dull and there is an honesty in some of the poor behaviour that you see in the poker world that is sort of charming actually. That last bit doesn't make sense and yet it's what I feel.
Thanks for the good wishes. In a lot of ways it's the fruition of 5+ years planning and yet we're so unprepared it's hilarious. She's great and my emotions are swinging off the charts at times here. Great times.‘IF YOU had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.” Genghis Khan

Twas actually very funny as one particular lady was disgusted. She paid private plus Merrion wing etc but her consultant didn't show up and she was forced to spend a night in the semi private ward. The indignity of it all was too much for her. Having said that she probably had a fair point given what she had paid.
The staff were excellent for the main business but it was a mixed bag on the ward. Dickensian conditions really at times and the staff on the wards are overrun. It's important to be there to make sure the Mrs isn't railroaded at any time due to her being in an emotional and vulnerable state. I'm glad I was by her side for most of the past few days.
The food is pretty good. Lots of choice and she can make good healthy choices if she wishes. MrsV had fish and salads and lamb cutlets etc all excellent to be fair. She's singing the praises of the midwives too and I'd echo that mostly.Last edited by V for Vendetta; 12-09-15, 15:00.‘IF YOU had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.” Genghis Khan

Just as it suits people of a certain bent for Irish politics to involve FG / FF / Labour inhabiting the same ideological ground and pretending they're different; Conservatives would like a situation where it's them or a slightly lighter version of them as the options for the British electorate. So I'm sure some of the laughter is a bit put on.

The Day The Labour Party Died
"Earlier in the week David Cameron called his ministers together for their political cabinet. It opened with some concerned analysis about the potential political consequences of a Corbyn victory. One minister pointed to the size of Labour’s potential activist base. Another noted how the enthusiasm for Corbyn amongst Labour supporters reminded him of the first stirrings of the SNP surge in Scotland. Then there was a pause. And then everyone started laughing. It was, they all agreed, a result beyond their wildest dreams."
IMO Labour had no realistic hope of winning the next election anyway, at least now they will provide a distinctive voice rather than Tory lite.

In my view, Noel is under absolutely no obligation to 'explain' himself as a pre condition to posting here. Clearly it is not in his interest to say anything and that's fair enough. Equally, people are under no obligation to censor their views on cheating just because an IPB regular is mixed up in a situation.
It was reasonable to ask for a statement, but it would be unreasonable to continue badgering for one. That's my take on it anyway."Worldly wisdom teaches that it is better for reputation to fail conventionally than to succeed unconventionally." - John Maynard Keynes
