        For things to do in Galway before 5pm. It is great fun to feed bread to the Swans over by the pier , they don't come up the gangway out of the water and definitely do not surround you in an Alfred Hitchcock type 'birds' manner. When you have finished with that shit, get yourself off to the slots and get 50 quid in 10 cents coint, in particular fun is to sit beside some ol biddy playing 5 machines, when she goes off to powder her nostrail hair, remove her scarf from the machine she have 'marked as used' sit and play her machine in her absence . When she comes back, tell her you hit the jackpot , show her your 50 Euros in 10 cents. After that fun you and the lads (well not you as you'll pass) toss your hair, put on pikey accents and see how many pubs serve you. For the pubs that serve you, ask does they take credit cards, when they say yes, laugh uproariously and pay for your drink with the 10 cents pieces.

        By 5 PM you can get back into your scoutleaders uniform and disgust the local pervs.

            Yeah Viffers well is some read. Pure degen...I don't really envy him...



            I could weep with happiness over this signing by the way, best out and out striker in the world imho. A year and a Zlatan signing too late but better late than never. Can see him getting 40 goals in this Barca side and they'll be very very hard to stop next year. Not sure Cesc is worth similar money given the area's Barca need players in, replacing Toure if he is to leave which he shouldn't but most likely will is a higher priority as is getting another defender in preferably who can cover at centre half and right back.

                          FTA sports are an absolute joke. Any sports fan who doesn't like Sky is mildly retarded imo. Yeah you have to pay for it, but for your outlay, you get a product that is lightyears ahead of any other channel.
                          Eh, the coverage and production values on RTE when they broadcast Rugby far outstrips anything Sky are capable of.

                            In terms of football TV3 is the only channel I'd rank lower than sky on my list of channels I'd like to watch it on. Their production is slick but the product is utter horsesh-t.

                                Agree, hes the best finisher around by a long way, pure class.

                                  huh? Tom Mcgurk knows absolutely nothing about rugby and makes a tit out of himself at least once during a program by not knowing the rules. I won't even get started on Ryle Nugent or god forbid we have to endure George Hamiliton for a rugby match. Sky aren't perfect, they do have Mark Robson but at least he'll only be on for 3 or so of the 9 matches they show. Miles Harrison and Stuart Barnes are very good though. The only good thing RTE have in Conor O'shea.

                                    The production is far better on Sky, camera angles far superior, and their replays are always spot on.

                                    I also like the frontline, depending on who is in the coverage. Yah it sucks not to have Hook and Pope`for the banter, but I'm happy enough to form my own opinion on the game with a better picture and quality.

                                    Also pre-Sky rugby coverage was awful, RTE have basically just copied what Sky have done, but Sky still do it better, and HD with Sky too. It's no contest imo. People who complain about Sky are just as bad as people who complain about Ryanair.

                                      Their sky plus system is so much better than UPC's equivalent, and red button coverage as well a number of other things, I really want to move back but can only get decent internet access here with UPC.
                                      I switched from NTL to SKy about a year ago and I think I prefer NTL, provided their sky+ equiv works. It hadn't been released yet when we had NTL.

                                      Not being able to click the info button while browsing without changing channel is ridiculous, and having to trek into other channels for ITV, though I rarely watch it, is also pretty annoying.

                                          Sky is the stone cold nuts. They do everything better when showing a match. Nice and shiny too.

                                            Let's just say I strongly disagree with both above posts. The commentary teams Sky trot out are absolutely horrendous. Nugent isn't great, but he is relatively better. And the RTE panel is always more entertaining. Plus, Sky never manage to capture the significance and tradition:

                                                        This, I actually think lightyears doesn't fully cover the true gap between the two.

                                                          Oh completely. But I think the idiocy of Sky soccer coverage has been done to death on here.

                                                          All the channel has going for it is it shows more stuff. But when it does show stuff, it shows it badly, both in terms of commentary and analysis.

                                                            The analysis is as bad as RTE. Dunphy likes to run his mouth, Whelan is pretty dumb. Giles is decent and Souness is pretty good too. Souness is often on Sky and they usually have a guest or two that come across well. RTE analysis is muck and just a load of bickering between aul lads. Sky has 7 mins of stating the obvious and name dropping from Redknapp with Richard Keys smiling and staring the camera out of it for as long as he can. Bad as each other.

                                                            In Rugby it is close but Sky edge it imo.

                                                            Sky commentators are in a league of their own. Best about.

                                                                Forgot about Greenwood, his enthusiasm is class. I suppose it all depends on the person and what they want. RTE is entertaining because of the OTT sensationalist crap they spew out, while Sky can be boring as fuck for a lot of people. I just can't stand Tom Mcgurk, I really really hate the fucker. The same problems RTE rugby have, the soccer has it as well. Brent Pope and George hook both know very little outside of Leinster and Munster, at least Conor O'shea is there who knows a good bit about each league. The rest of the knowledge they get from watching the HEC. They probably watch very little T14, GP or ML. in their free time. The benefit of sky is with the Irish and Welsh panelists like Ieun Evans, Paul Wallace and Scot Quinlan will bring some ML knowledge to the HEC. Its the same with the soccer, Dunphy and Giles know jack shit outside the Premiership, except how good Barca are unless they lose and then there just unlucky.

                                                                I don't think RTE soccer is miles ahead of sky, both are awful to be honest. It's like a discussion of Rafa. On one channel you have The Muppet, Boggles and NTLBell while on the other you have Mr. Alan. Complete polar opposites and personalyl both are miles away to what I want.

Souness is often on Sky and they usually have a guest or two that come across well. RTE analysis is muck and just a load of bickering between aul lads. Sky has 7 mins of stating the obvious and name dropping from Redknapp with Richard Keys smiling and staring the camera out of it for as long as he can. Bad as each other.

                                                                  In Rugby it is close but Sky edge it imo.

Compare and contrast Souness on RTE v Sky. If they're wrong at least it's their own opinion thats wrong not what they're told to say. I can think of few things in the world less interesting than watch a Sky panel analyse a game.

I prefer to make my own mind up on things and not listen to people whose opinions I don't care much for. Punditry is usually muck on every channel. It isn't important imo. Sky do the important things brilliantly.

                                                                        Comment

I'd say The Hook should just do every channel though.

                                                                          Comment

It's a pity the guy gets tongue tied on both radio and tv but his pieces in the Irish Times are a must read. I pretty much ignore everything else. Occasionally Gerry Thornely might have a colour piece worth reading but his analysis of the game is nothing special.

                                                                              Hook is poor especially these days as he has too much other stuff going on and as a result he's trading on shock value and his reputation rather than fundanmental analysis.

                                                                              Pope can be decent but at this stage is too interested in knocking lumps off Hook and O'Shea is too politically safe to really say what he's thinking but I'd say he is at least three levels of thinking above the other two but he doesn't reveal it too often. It's a shame he's been lost to Irish coaching as I think he'd have an awful lot to offer.

                                                                                  Some one PMed me and asked me to repost this....
                                                                                  Ok so the bellagio hooker incident went as follows... I was hanging at bellagio with a girl I was dating at the time(who wouldn't lick my ass), so I ordered 3 hookers up to my room who I figured would. The girl I was dating at the time wanted to drink and party, so I sent her down to the baccarat bar to hang with some of my friends, I told her I was tired and didn't want to be disturbed.
                                                                                  Flash forward 50 minutes 3 hookers arrive at my door step... 2 passed inspection and the other was sent home. Services were discussed, as was the licking of my ass, we came to terms and then they instructed me to get naked. As anyone who knows me can vouch, I always leap at the opportunity to get naked. This was different, b/c they wouldnt take off any clothes till I got totally naked. Cliff note- I had been doing more blow than Rick James in his prime, and taken enough xanax to kill a full grown wilderbeast so I perhaps wasn't thinking totally clearly. This being said I was fully convinced they were trying to take the money I had already paid them and bolt as soon as i got naked, being that most wouldn't give chase w/o clothes. I started arguing with them and they got belligerent and one said she was going to call her pimp to kill me. I took her flip phone and broke it in 2 and threw it on the ground, the other one jumped on my back from behind like some kind of a ****ing flying squirrel and tried to choke me. I did an osoto-gari judo throw and sent her ass crashing into my dresser, then the other crazy hooker ran at me, I didn't even really think about it I just reacted with some kind of coked up mule kick and sent her doing a back flip over the bed. I grabbed her purse and retrieved my 900 dollars, the first hooker then started clawing my back and punching me. I grabbed her with one arm and her purse with the other and threw her into the hall. As soon as I turned around, a book came flying threw the air and hit me in the face. I yell at her to get out of my room, she refuses and goes for my blow, that was the last straw I grab her by her hair and drag her out of my room and throw her in the hall, I give her one last kick in the ribs and then run back to my room to do another line and dispose of the evidence.
                                                                                  I had been getting killed in the pit, so I called my host and explained that I had been attacked and robbed by wild hookers and I needed them removed asap. He understood the situation and sent security to remove the unruly patrons. Best part was when my girl came to the room she explained how she had seen the craziest thing in the world. She is like there was 2 crazy strippers that looked like they had been beat up, yelling as they were being dragged out. I acted surprised and said no way seriously???

                                                                                      His Tommy Bowe has no pace quote well played George.

                                                                                          I like the position that McGuirk and O'Herlihy have. It's actually a very clever formula. Take one numpty who knows nothing about the sport to represent the VAST majority of viewers and have him ask the sort of question that the football philistine might ask to a panel of colourful and knowledgeable sorts.

                                                                                              Maybe it's just down the country, but the Sky picture quality is far better than RTE in any place I've lived in. Far clearer, and brighter. Very noticeable when they are using the same feed.

                                                                                                    1. Honeymoon recommendations. I'm hoping to book my honeymoon in the next few weeks. I want no more then a 2-3 hour flight from Ireland. Honeymoon is in August for 2-3 weeks. Ideally relaxing luxury for the first few days and then some sightseeing or activities. Any suggestions?


                                                                                                    2. Best option for linking my iphone to my standard stereo sound system in a mazda 6 (no aux input)? i.e fm transmitter or some description or would you recommend a change to the stereo system? (looks tricky to change from what I've seen online....)


                                                                                                    3. Wedding present. Looking to buy two presents for two couples getting married this weekend. Hoping to spend no more then 300 each. Both own their own homes a long time. Any ideas other then cash? (a carefully chosen voucher would be acceptable at this stage!)


                                                                                                    4. usb tv tuner recommendations for recording from a sky box/satellite output? (you either know what I mean here or you won't be able to help i'm afraid)
