the new one seems to be ' oh you're not interested, OK do you know anyone who is? I am really struggling to find candidates here.'
right, so not only do you want me to do your job for you, you also want me to weaken my org by recommending people to leave."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

Jackpot colossus confirmed goneski. Was a great poker place back in the day. My own highlight being a 6500 euro pot in 1-1 Omaha with only 8 euro in the pot on flop.

The graphs in the developing world countries for covid look scary (India, South Africa, Brazil etc) now.
Anyone want to set the over\under for 'July infections'? June to date looks to be ~3.5m cases and still 5 days worth of data to go so 4m probably."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

The guy basically check raised every flop pots turn then pots river. The regs bewildered by his play. He is getting the card room manager to chip him up a bad sign is he escaping into 100 black chips.

I've lost all the money on this, so there's no brag here, just love the dynamics of the game. Now if they'd make an omaha version of that the world would be a fantastic place.
They have Omaha bounty on Party Poker.

I hate moving. Been at it all day, just heading for a nap now. Lorry coming at 7 to pick up all the big stuff.
Sooner it's over the better. My doctor and physio are not going to be too happy with me. I got hit by a car a couple of months ago, back is not in great shape and I'm really feeling it right now after all the stuff I lugged over to our new house.
The one good thing that I never realised when we were buying the place is just how beautiful the back garden is, got to relax out there for a short while today. Quiet, private and it's got so many different plants. Gonna take a fair bit of upkeep but well worth it.

Wineguys, Lao Lao, Raoul, Zuut,
In Vivino, does 'Ageing - 16' mean the wine matures at 16 years old? See screenshot.
I've started my little collection with that 2016 Meerlust, thanks to Lao Lao for the nudge.
There's a couple of other wines I like that I want to find out if they age, how can I find out? Can I use Vivino?
Vino Nobile de Montepulciano is one.

Be very interesting to see who gets what. Particularly interesting to see what job Leo takes. You would have thought Foreign Affairs would be the natural one for a Tanaiste in this type of arrangement but surely Coveney can't be moved out of there at this point in time."We are not Europeans.

Vino Nobile de Montepulciano is one.
At a really high level, most wine sold in Ireland is for drinking now. Like 90%+. So drink it now.
Most white wine is best drunk young. There are notable exceptions such as good Riesling, Hunter Valley Semillon, Chablis and some sweet wines.
Red wine benefits more from ageing. But again, a lot of it is duly sold having already spent a few years in the bottle - like that Meerlust or, say, most riojas. You could drink that right now and it would be very nice. But you could drink it in 10 years time and it could be amazing.
I wouldn't be arsed with very specific 'this bottle of 2015 Chateau de Catpiss would benefit from 7-8 years of ageing' advice. A high level chart like this tells you everything you need to know.

Oh, and some day you will know the exquisite pain of opening up a very special bottle of wine that you have carefully put away for 10 years+ to savour on a special occasion and discovering it to have turned into rancid piss in the bottle."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

Maybe I should have said “playing politics”. You know the game I mean.
Paddy’s more of a champion of people type. Local council is the right place tbh, power aside.

I know he was suspended a while ago for something he said on the podcast. Refer to a women as a scumbag:
And I just want to say to you, there's a situation that I heard during the week... somebody was underage, the person didn't know they were underage, the girl pursued the guy.
Got whatever she needed, had pictures, had videos, and then said 'I want 10 grand'.
You may be referring to something else though.

It looks like FF will be taking housing and health which if happens, could be a master stroke by FG as they are two poisoned chalices. They may be able to make some inroads on housing but health will always be a basket case.

I will be so pissed off if this new shower do a deal over all the poor part time workers who never even asked for the 350/week to be facing a tax liability come year end.
I can actually feel my BP rising thinking about it.
Bloke i work with telling me yesterday that his daughter got the new iphone, sure isnt she getting 350 /week for a job that paid her 80, shes loaded ! What about the tax says i ? She is a student and wont work next year is her plan, 5er a week jobbie.This too shall pass.

The trend has been about 30% annual increases for last 5 years, and that will probably continue even if a blind monkey is in charge. So there will be a big increase to point to at the end of the five years. Obv won't make everyone happy due to the absence of free houses for everyone paid by billionaires, but there will be enough there to satisfy a fair few voters. Should be up around 50-60k annual builds by end of the term, which is grand, and with enough surplus properties to satisfy a decent part of social housing demands.

You can scan labels or barcode to find the wine in the CT database. Which has better info imo.
