Alpe de Howth Head nailed. From the Abbey Tavern side.
Reckon that should get me through January.
On a side note, you do get a great view of Dublin from the summit. It really is superbly well situated compared to most cities, stretching around Dublin Bay and nestled in under the mountains.
Fuck Paris and London, we've got it made!"We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

9.25games are more of a problem though its possible the darts will over around 10.15 if they both go 6-2 6-3 or suchlike.
GreenBay/Detroit at 1.30 is the biggest game anyway.

In the Polish countryside they drink beer like water and vodka like beer. Bimber is just their next step. Officially home distillation is illegal in Poland since 2004 but the authorities do very little to stop people from doing it anyway.
How the fuck am I gonna get on a plane at 9.45 when the man of the house is throwing this shit at me
Said its good for me hmm lolHer sky-ness

For what it's worth I've always admired your candour about it, I guess a lot of people go on about how great everything is when a baby arrives because it's expected.
(Not suggesting that's happening with DP or anyone else, I'm glad you are all getting on well!)

Once they get older they're basically dogs. Pack animals who can fight viciously. They need regular exercise, regular meals and look after their teeth."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

Hopefully this year I'll do better than having an arsonist set fire to my apartment while I'm in bed, have an ak-47 wielding gang gun down somebody in my hotel, the security guard at our apartment block steal everybodies underwear, be hit by a car and then worst of all have to listen to Mariah Carey today to see what the fuss was.
Grand aul day today, bitta sun, few bants, couple hours in L. Mulligan Grocers with the lads and getting got free desserts. Looking on the up.
Happy new year.

One of the packages the Italians sent over last week was this odd looking piece of bacon called Guancile au Pepe
SPOILER
Wouldn't have thought of anything other to do with it other than use it like pancetta but I have some beautiful smoked pancetta already but lucliky they sent me a lovely simple recipe with instructions for what do do with it it.
First I boiled it for two hours
Then I sliced it thin and fried it
These bits were amazing to taste and if I hadn't cooked it all there wouldn't have been enough left for the sauce
Sauteed an onion and when it was cooked I diverged from the recipe by draining off a lot of the fat that had rendered from the Guancile. Then added a half dozen ripe tomatoes and a chili
Let that cook down for about 20 mins while I cooked a big pot of Bucatini pasta
Tossed about 100g of Parmesan into the the pasta
then stirred in the sauce along with a bit of fresh basil.
Contender for the nicest thing I've ever cooked. Amazing.Turning millions into thousands

I am going through some of the best Ted Talks from 2016 (The Monkey currently has control ). I did actually watch this one during the year but coming across it again I thought it is worth posting as reminded me how much I related and I enjoyed it.

Can't believe that I have booked 2 holidays today before 6 o'clock.
A week in Lanzarote over Paddy's weekend, and a week in Kilkee over the August Bank holiday weekend.
That's on top of a Spa weekend in the Knockranny house hotel in 3 weeks time and we have to go to Berlin in October and she still wants to go away for her 50th in September.
Anyone got any suggestions for that? ?
The boss is gonna love me on Tuesday when I tell him.

Did the usual mexican food for dinner before going two stepping in the local country bar around the corner from my friends house. (They have midget wrestling there next thursday) What used to be celebrating ironically changed last night as there was a huge amount of attractive women in dresses out partying.

It's not so much inherently offensive as it is simply wrong, and the negative reaction it incurs is less a matter of political correctness than the ordinary sort of correctness. Of course, there's also a layer of political correctness, but that's outside the central point that most dwarfs aren't midgets.
A midget (as applied to humans) conventionally refers to a person whose body is reduced proportionately along all dimensions, while the status of being a dwarf is defined in terms of height (one definition is having an adult height of less than 4'10").
The term midget becomes offensive when used to describe a dwarf because it demonstrates that the speaker doesn't care enough to distinguish midgets (who are very rare and frequently mentally handicapped due to their disproportionately small crania) from dwarves in general, the most common type of which are achrondroplastic dwarfs (who are, on average, of average intelligence, though obviously not average height).
This style of speaking is particularly stigmatized because it's associated with the patter used in 19th and early 20th century carnival shows. The dwarves who participated in these shows were frequently, albeit inaccurately, described as "midgets."
If you're a little bit confused or uncertain, rest assured that it's safe to fall back on the straightforward cover term "little person" (plural "little people"). Why do we call them this? For the same person you call anyone little. Because that's what they are. They're people and they're little, hence little people. I'm sure anyone who's tired of political correctness and would like to call a spade a spade will find the term "little person" quite congenial.
Of course, it's best of all to call people by their own names.

The Little People of America advocacy group is still fuming that an event called “Extreme Midget Wrestling” took place last weekend in Arizona. The state had recently issued a proclamation declaring that the term “midget” was antiquated and offensive.
Chandra Streitt, the vice president of Little People’s Valley of the Sun chapter, said that not only did she want the name Extreme Midget Wrestling changed for events within Arizona, but also nationally.
“We are definitely waiting to hear back from the wrestling federation,” she told The Huffington Post. “We want an answer.”

Females are just bitches in their later teens. Hardly get a civil word from her and she just snaps replies rather than speaking.
I had said to the eldest I didn't want her to be spending the whole time at the horse yard while she was off college, after 2 days I changed my mind and let her go before I killed her!
The little one is still ok at the minute, she sees and learns from the older ones punishments. Pity #2 didn't!
Every day is fight fight fight. The screams from them embarrass me. I hope the neighbours can't hear them

Just spent a few hours in the Acquatic Centre with the kids. Holy shit, the obesity epidemic is for real (said he from Super Macs, feeding the kids lunch). Scary stuff. Rule seems to be this:

To be honest I am against the whole event...so ..graceless. It's hardly promoting human dignity.
Think they banned it in Oz and the dwarf participants promptly brought a lawsuit of restraint of trade. And won, in short order."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

We have managed to reverse millenia of fattiness\class trends in a couple of short decades.
Whereas in Africa and Asia, fat still = money.
I do love that old African blessing:
"may you drink much beer and grow fat""We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."
