    But either way, it's hardly a matter for this thread surely?

    Do you have a different jokey name for each one of that family.

    It's a little...strange.
    and the Phillistines inside even blasted invaluable documents going back centuries - despite pleas from their own. So you think they should be let do as they pleased. If Devileire had gone over for the talks, it might necer have come to that. But coward that he was, and knew what was on offer from previous June, he stayed back home in his bunker.

    What Queen are you talking about you stupid ignoramus? King George V was on the throne when the civil war was being fought, I’m quiet sure that his wife Queen Mary had little interest in what Michael Collins was up to.

    All very on topic of course.

    I think someone around here has a little obsession with a certain family! ;-)

    For me the making up names fixation thing was the giveaway. Let it go. It's not good for you.

    The Queen thing and Collins...sure call it a Freudian slip!

    But either way, septic tanks and all that?

    Ooh - I see the EPA has found that over 50% of Wastewater Treatment Plants do not comply with all its guidelines!

    EPA calls for improvement in waste water plants | BreakingNews.ie

    Surely this is going to cost urban dwellers a fortune - and couldn't come at a worse time? First they will have to pay for the EPA inspections and then (worse) they will have to pay for the upgrades to the system.

    Whereas rural dwellers, who already pay for septic tank inspections and upgrades will not be affected..

    Oh wait - no - I forgot - rural dwellers will pay for rural septic tanks AND urban waste water plants plants....

    Bruce Arnold: O Cuiv has given his party the chance to shape a new future - Analysis, Opinion - Independent.ie

    Strange bedfellows: O Cweeve has a strange ally today in Bruce Arnold. Next he will Farage and UKIP on his side, and maybe Ganley, as well as SF ?

    Septic tank issues are only thing FF can come up with. I see they are having ameeting on it in Cong, ( Quiet Man village) to night, attended by Séarachas himself, and newe deputy leader of FF, Calleary. It is organised by local FF Cllr, Damien Ryan.

    They might have had turf issue as well but the likes of Flanagan has that covered. FF arrived in opposition to find their populist clothes being worn by others.
    Breathing new life into Fianna Fáil is like breathing new life into the Black and Tans.
