    AS on your AUGHNACLOY query, I have probably driven through it on my travels, but doubt if I've
    Ever stopped to look round, must give it a go, sometime. Although I swell with pride that one of the
    Hardest men in any Bond story is from over here ! :)) Also in a Gardner Bond Novel, My surname is
    Used for a minor character ( she gets killed) if it helps if you ever read it, just imagine me in Drag. ;)

    :) nice one TP I shall certainly think of you :)
    but on a random note ,I lost a great friend today ,and as I saw her I shed a tear ,she was at least 150 years old 8-) I first met her when I was about 7 ,(im now 57 ) and at a certain time of year I would make my annual pilgrimage to pay her a visit .She gave me many hours of fun as a small boy and also when I, and my family had their children as well .Now I have a grand son ,and im sorry that he will not share in this magnificent ladys bounty . 8-) (who is this person that AS knows that is 150 years old I hear you mutter),She was a beautiful horse chestnut tree ,conkers to you ,we small, scruffy boys would in the autumn, would scurry to the park ,before the other boys ,and furiously like pigs rooting for truffles ,pick up the bounty of conkers that this lady had shed .
    We would spend hours playing conkers ,in the school yard ,it was like F.A cup day ,Jims sixer is going against Sids niner ,the ritual of smelling each other conkers would start ,to check that the opponent hadn't pickled or baked his conker .With two boys squared up in the middle of a ring of other boys ,almost like a bare knuckle fight ,the first to strike would be greeted with a loud cheer ,old boot laces for strings ,knuckles would be hit ,but this was to the death .The victorious winner would claim the other boys count ,and now his sixer was a grand 15 .Almost like an old gun slinger from the wild west ,there was always another boy ,waiting armed with a two er ,ready to snatch glory .And now the council has decided to chop her down ,cut her up,shred her, and burn her .They wouldn't have the brains to turn her into planks ,so she could live on as furniture .I walked over to the stump ,it must of had a girth of 10 feet ,I patted her ,said thank you and said goodbye .Now where did that stupid dog go .
    By the way, did I tell you, I was "Mad"?

    Oddly enough many men have no Interest in sport at all, in a radio survey some years ago
    I think it was something like 60% of men have no Interest , it's simp!y the other 40% going
    On about it. :D

    Can't stand it, 22 over paid mongs kicking a pigs bladder round a field.

    I prefer them sports where a bloke chucks a saucer in the air only to take a 12bore to it or that other one where a load of over paid mongs drive fast cars round in circles until they all crash in hideous fireballs or simply run out of petrol.

    It is funny at school I used to think I was the odd one, because of my lack of interest in sport, yet
    when it came to hobbies I did tended to choose solitary pursuits like Karate, Course fishing and
    photography. I guess I'm not a team player ? :D

    I like watching football and major sporting events like the Olympics - there must be some other AJBers who do as well (or am I alone...) :))
    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.

    Can't say I'm that excited about the Euros, think its because ive never had my country qualify in my lifetime so it has not registered :))

    Reminds me to put some money on England to get knocked out by penaltys!

    It's my family tradition that all the boys play with odd shaped balls! As a big rugby family my grandfather, my dad and his two brothers all played rugby, naturally as did I, now my little boy is in line for it, football wasn't watched or tolerated as a sport, so I have no interest in the euros. It's more a business than a sport these days. And top players are drastically over payed and under talented IMHO!
    But this little 20 month old future England Rugby captain is priceless

    In protestant Norway there is a tradition to celebrate St Hans Day (24th of July) by burning large bonfires in the evening. Near Ålesund young people have for decades put their pride into building the largest bonfire around. This year they wil build the biggest in the world - 45 meters/147.6 feet

    Watch this!

    It's amazing how people love bonfires, over here there's a tradition for big bonfires on the
    11th night ( Night before the 12th of July) a big Orange Order celebration, and there is always
    a competition to see who can make the biggest bonfire.

    Just heard Madeline Smith doing an interview on the radio about her role in LALD.....

    "of course, the watch wasn't real, there was a special effects guy who put a wire or a plastic thing down the back of the zip.... and so when we did the filming, I had this special effects guy between my legs yanking on it."

    :o

    what about the wire though?

    :))

    I had to do a Moonraker pigeon double take at the weekend, on first sight, what I'd thought I'd seen was .......
    A man leading his wife/girlfriend by a lead, in a shopping centre ! :o (quick double take ) .....
    It was a man sharing his earphones with his wife/girlfriend, while he still held on to his phone ! and
    Walking slightly ahead of her. :D
