Was going to head there after dinner with a few couples a while back but a quick glance at the website suggested a lapdancing type place so didnt bother yet on tripadvisor it seems to be a normal cocktail bar.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that

Splashed about in a blow up pool with my kid, burnt some chicken wings on a barbecue, jammed to tunes, visited Decathlon in Belfast, took a road trip by myself with sunshine and tunes, paced 25 mins at parkrun and got a guy a 14 second pb, bought a mint car.

I'm in Munich for the weekend, floated about today but ended up spending almost 4 hours in the documents museum today. It details the rise of Third Reich and aftermath of the war & trials.
It's a must see and to be honest im debating sending jack there to see if anything resonates with him.
I consider the USA my home and have paid more in taxes than some there will make in the next 20 years, i fucking love the place, but the first 2 floors of the museum just left me with a sadness and a feeling of despair. The parallels to what has happened and is happening is frightening. For example, looking at propaganda posters of "the humiliation of the white race" and other shit. Certain americans are falling under the same spell. Maybe its because the country is so young and naive at heart, they dont know true misery and havent grown from that.

Trump seems to have gone off the deep end (even for him). Macron basically calling him unhinged.
God only knows what will happen at the NK summit - they'll probably get on great."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

It seems most likely that since an earthquake a few months ago NK don't have a nuclear weapons programme any more. NK is a spent docket its only a matter of whether Kim can get to walk away alive and with money to keep him in the style to which he has become accustomed.
The more I look at that picture the more I recognise a certain kind angry senility in Trumps face.Turning millions into thousands

What makes it even better is there's other photos taken around the same time from other angles that tell a different story altogether.

I can see how his supporters view that picture so differently to you and I.
Imagine that was Simon Harris, sitting down, arms folded, smirking, surrounded by the Iona institute, Quinn with his fists on the table.
Imagine that and you'll see it from out their window.Last edited by Lazare; 10-06-18, 22:16.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that

Originally posted by Strewelpeter View PostWhen did that open?
Was up there recently, saved myself a good few quid by not knowing about it
Just beyond George Best airport, beside IKEA.
You're right though, you could sink a fortune in it. Their kalenji brand is brilliant.
Amazing store up there, as big as B&Q in Liffey Valley, no matter what sport you're in to they have a section, surf boards, kites, cricket stuff, everything.
One opening in Ballymun soon.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that

Trump has the mentality of a toddler. I'm fairly convinced he's mentally unbalanced."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

If you look at the G7 President Trump has formed a close alliance with Japan and Italy who are closer in political ideology to him. Germany, France and Canada have business models relying on the US accepting a trade deficit in the name of international relations so obviously this is upsetting them. UK sort of out on their own these days not sure of where they stand.

The US buys three times as much crap from Italy as it sells to them.
Don't you get tired of being wrong about stuff?
By contrast, the US sells Canada as much crap as it buys from them.
Consider yourself educated."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

Have you got some alternative facts? Because otherwise those ones above (that totally undermine your 'analysis') will have to do....."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

Considering all the expectations of a fascist leader hell bent on nuclear war, it's worked out grand so far.
