Is there a hospital in Termonfeckin?  Only reason I ask is I drop a lot of culchie OAPs from the train stations to some specialist cancer doctor because he's the only one in the country..all the way from Mayo or some abandoned kip.Hoping you never need one but the culchies get a raw deal compared to Dubs for medical care.

True
If you have to ask for money up front you shouldn’t be taking them.

Indeed...can't understand a driver mentality like that....they'd probably take every fukin penny you have.

Hal, sort out an argument please...the mott had a packet of Chicken Soup she bought in Supervalu, Dungiven, Co Derry when she was at a religious group assembly (I wasn't with her)...on the back of the packet...Erin Soup, Boyne Valley Group, Platin Rd, Drogheda....Co Meath? Drogheda was never in Meath....not ever....she reckons I'm full of shite....
Technically it’s Meath
The red line is the Border.
Kinda like North Bray is Doooblin

.....Never thought I'd want to but I'd like to move now..so does the missus,Termonfeckin is where we're looking at,would settle for something smaller and on it's own away from little kids(as ours are teenagers now)
I would be very slow to move if'n the kids are still in secondary school, moving kids from school to school does them no favours at all. Yours should be nearly at school leaving stage by now Hal, my advice would be to hang on till they finish school, after that the kids will find their own wings and you can move on, the further South the better !
Best of Luck with it all.

They are called Knackers because back in the day it was the Gypsies, Thieves, Tramps and Knackers that took dead/disabled livestock from the farmers fields fer No fee and fed their own with it.
