RE: the other woman

I thought that I was kind of curious about how this thread will end, then I realize that I am not really. I figure that the 80 year old woman will possibly die alone...as in her kids might be there, her "super stud " husband might be there but will she know if any of them even her kids have respected the choice that she has made. Possibly she will have spent her life raising kids that might perceive her as being weak and a husband that has thought of her as someone that has served a purpose? I would imagine that she may have led a lonely life

RE: the other woman

I have never been to Ohio..I lived in New York/ New Jersey for 14 years...so I hope you dont mind if I add a wee song...could not find one about Columbus...So...I will be done for hijacking threads

RE: the other woman

RE: Making the first move

RE: Lunar eclipse

Ah yeah, I know what you mean I skimmed the threads this morning. Sure everyone is entitled to their opinion. I prefer to stay out of it for the most part...unless I am feeling bold

RE: Lunar eclipse

Dunno is there a bus?
Maybe they all went to the moon

RE: Lunar eclipse

Nice photo, I got some very amateurish point and shoot ones
My last profile pic was removed might try another one

RE: Lunar eclipse

Definitely a conspiracy

RE: Internet provider

I find 3 the best for mobile internet. I could never get the same coverage with O2 or vodafone in certain areas there was absolutely no coverage but got coverage with 3. I am on a contract with them. I think the minimum is one year but you have two weeks to try it out. I had some glitches in the beginning and their customer service is beyond crap but overall I still find them way better than o2. I think it is 20 euro including vat per month.

RE: tall women/ tall men

Well , I met you briefly (you probably dont remember me)

Dublin...Then..and Now.

Thanks for that A. I love looking at old photos and footage.
Hi Modern and Sweet...still cant double quote
I was looking through old family photos recently and my sister in law commented that we no longer print out photos and have albums. I print some out for framing but I rarely get photos printed regularly. I bought digital frames for my family recently but I suppose they are not the same.

What's the best place you ever lived in?

I can tell that you are new at this....they issue us with Spring/Summer cloth coats for this time of year...or if Ireland is the permanent base of operations a raincoat and an umberella is standard issue....umberella also doubles up as a torture device

What's the best place you ever lived in?

That is one of the things that I really loved about New York, I knew people from all different ethnic backgrounds. I could be sitting having a pint with a Muslim from Macedonia (my friend who didn't really adhere to all the Muslim laws lol) an African American from Texas, A jew from the upper East side...it was all good craic and we were not PC so the slagging was fierce.

What's the best place you ever lived in?

Well I think that memories are probably more about people than places, mine just happened to be in New York

What's the best place you ever lived in?

Hard to beat memories...I love the fact that most people have such individual childhood memories, they were loved by family and friends and so secure...We dont all have that as adults. I am lucky enough to have had that throughout my life with family and friends. I often wonder is that what makes people nasty Cos they might not have good memories to draw on??

What's the best place you ever lived in?

Ok crap grammar...but where is the best place that you have ever lived?
For me...I think it has to be New York...I love Donegal and have lived here for almost eleven years. I grew up in County Cavan which I will always consider to be home...but New York is the best place by far. Maybe cos I spent most of my twenties and half of my thirties there...I am nostalgic for the place. I still have friends there.
Have to say also that Dublin is fantastic, lived there for a couple of years in the early 80's and to this day have amazing friends from my time spent living and working there.
Just curious to know if there is any place that you have lived that has mega memories for you??

RE: Who's still.........4

Time Now...Ladies and Gentlemen Please...Have you no homes to go to???
Oops sorry thought I was back in O'Donoghue's in the 80's the barman used to go around whacking a bottle of the wall shouting that
I still moved at a snail's pace
Morning all
