I doubt the punting purists would approve .51 bets. Check any balance tonight
Afternoon though, lol, you'll be on here having the craic at 5am after leaving the SportsI hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that

I have a couple of courses booked so fingers crossed it clears up in the next couple of days.
Its the first time I’ve ever felt I actually needed a break from work. I’ll take that as a sign of growing up.

Tried to change it but was costing a fortune..with my expectations so low I'm hoping I might enjoy it. Anyone ever been there?

Had dinner in Seabank in Malahide last night somehow for the first time. Food was amazing. Seafood platter shared for starters and Monkfish Curry for main. They had Dover Sole that looked amazing too. Not cheap but well worth it.

Took the Dublin coach to airport as airport parking is gone so expensive..bus is fucking grim. There was a dirty tissue on the empty seat beside me which I had to flick off with my shoe. Rubbish all over the floor
There is a lad sitting right in front of me and Holy fuck I'd say he hasn't washed himself or his clothes in months..its so bad I actually feel like puking.. Every breed of a fucking yoke on it
Can't wait to get off and get airHer sky-ness

Not sure if you’re going to Killarney for poker but I booked a line for the Friday Sept 30th, 2 spots available I’d say if you’re interested.
Thats an open invite to anyone interested of course and no need to confirm now, I can mention it again closer to the time.

Incredible stuff, doesn’t hit it far or anything but the lack of mistakes.
I’ve played rounds with a few guys who are lower but he’s the only person I’ve ever played with where I’ve been blown away by their game.

Turns out my tickets to the final were double booked, and we arrived 5 mins after the other guys. So had to hoof it to the bar to watch it on the big screen.
Not too disappointed though as some nice birds on view at the pub we were in and a good craic was had by all.
Great to see Kerry win after a few years in the wilderness... Proper order is restored!No beast so fierce but knows some touch of pity, but I know none, therefore am no beast.

Had arranged to meet a friend in town to watch the game in a pub, saw a post from Dobby on boards saying that there were a fair few tickets floating about and being offered, so as I was in 30 minutes before I was due to meet up decided to stand outside the Gresham and look open to approach didn't have to open my mouth, two lovely Listowel lads walked to to me and offered me a ticket for the lower Davin at face value. Couldn't say no, did feel a bit of a shit telling my friend though! Think that's the sixth time I've seen the Kingdom win Sam, first two times were 1984 and 1985.

What's the airport like at silly o'clock these days, if we assume I won't have an old poker adversary to wave me through in 4 minutes? 7am ish flight on Wednesday, no checked luggage, will have an almost 5 year old though with the attention span of an almost 5 year old. I don't really want to get there at 3.30am, but at the same time don't want to risk getting there at 5am either. I was thinking 4.15 or so to be at the terminal. eamonhonda any insights?

If it was me I'd be arriving at 4:30 so 4:15 is sound. V
worst case you're an hour in security queue. Theres a family lane but dunno if that does much, no harm in asking someone it might save you a few mins
airport, lol

... IPB FPL is back under new and unimproved ownership... Should be a much more straightforward season... Entries to main league (€30) and H2H (€20) now being accepted...
...Hi all... Setting up this seasons FPL as after 10 successful years, IAGO has decided to hang up the coat as master of ceremonies... No changes to money/rules, just to the bank details and revolut ;)... 1. Main league- €30 per entry- Less than 30 runners, pay 3 top, more than 30 runners pay 4. 2. There is a H2H league

I thought she did ok.
Counter intuitively her old 'pork markets' and 'cheese' meltdown speeches might actually help her, as she now looks stunningly competent and polished by comparison.
