adios 717 Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 (edited) thats bullshit. it has a bad reputation, but thats because the Dublin media dont give a fuck about anywhere outside of Dublin. Limerick is a great place. Loads of pub and eligible men and women 140780[/snapback] It's a big one, like. Are the eligible men in want of a wife? To be honest, I think they're both shit-holes, regardless of the media. Edited May 25, 2006 by DotBum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A little rough on the outskirts, but a canny piss up. 140798[/snapback] Was talking to a copper from Glasgow when I was up in Mull. He works in Hertfordshire now but he was telling me that there are so many young men that get stabbed that it's the most common form of death for men under-45 (-ish) and that they've taken to issuing public health warnings about it. Also, Strathclyde has the highest murder rate in Western Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of nice pubs there, it is expensive though. Personally I prefer glasgow for a night out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 10430 Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 housemate went to see the munster game, phoned from the players area (a tent I'm guessing) after the game, pissed as a mother fucker and giggling cos she was sitting on some egg chasers lap. I reminded her that it was fucking egg chasing and as such winning the European championship in rugby is just another example of how you can be a winner and a loser at the same time.

Happy Face 29 Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 I find it infinitely amusing that America couldn't win the first World Cup of Baseball earlier this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
