I have just read a headline that says "Ferne McCann confirms she is pregnant with Arthur Collins' baby"

Who the feck is Ferne McCann?

Who the feck is Arthur Collins?

And who gives a flying shite about either.

I was watching an edition of "American Pickers" who found a chair with "The Green Man" carved into its backrest. A so-called "expert" declared that is was an Irish pagan symbol of fertility.

Well Mr Gove and Mr Trump are proved right - don't trust experts. The symbol appears all over Europe and mostly in England and Wales - there is one on York Minster for god's sake! There are some examples in Scotland but very few in Ireland who have a different myth-history.

Cú Chulainn approves of your ire.

Now there's a bloke you don't want to get on the wrong side of....anyone who can turn his head completely round on his neck (long before 'The Exorcist' made it popular!)-and spout a mist of blood above his head when he goes into battle.....is definitely someone best engaged at long range......especially when he can throw a lethal spear with his foot....whilst presumably still staying upright in his chariot on the other....

I'm annoyed as the damn kids that wont stay off my damn lawn.
I spent all weekend cleaning it up and the fat little littering bastard-bugs keep dropping pop cans and chip bags on it. I'm annoyed with their parents too. No wonder everyone under 30 looks like a heifer ready for market if that's what they eat every day.
And belly rings, I'm annoyed at fat chicks with belly rings too!!!!!!
.............. More to come.
