DizzyDi: what the scateboarder????


He made a bet (whilst drunk) that he could
hitch hike around Ireland with a fridge.
True to his word he carried it out.
Starting from just outside Dublin, the rules
were, he should travel anticlockwise and
keep as close to the coast as possible.
Its a great read and gives an insight into
Irish humour and hospitality.thumbs up

Ooops you may be a little disappointed.. by far the most popular colouring for me over here is dark hair and blue eyes... there are ALOT of cuties though.. there are a few blonde men alright but its more dark blonde.. the girls (including me) would probably be dark blonde also if they didn't help it along a little laugh..

You'll have to come over Gangel.. find out for urself wink cheering cheering

No!!! most Irish men (although we have a fair few alcoholics) don't drink very frequently.. but when they do go out they tend to have several alright.. doesn't appear to be such a thing as have a couple and go home... they love to party!!

Down to 7min and 28 sec at the moment as in training for China, we seriously expect to take gold this year but have to watch out for the Czech Republic as they have been beating us in recent years. professor

It is, remember it was us who taught ye how to make whiskey, and a lot of us think it was Scottish/English conspiracy to all but wipe out our Whiskey distillers albeit with the Church.

No we have never forgotten and never will, so we try to woo ye over so we can have our wicked way with ye in recompense. professor tongue rolling on the floor laughing
