    Bullfighting

    That's only the start of the story, he came back to it without a perception of depth and keeps taking the same risks. Back in the ring where he lost his eye
  2. I know many on here have been vocal Antis of this , as they should be it's barbaric. But for those that might be curious here's an interesting article about Padilla, he lacks the skill and grace of the big names and divides bullfighting fans, some criticise his lack of art, but his bravery and the risks he takes demands respect. http://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/juan-jose-padilla-matador-bullfighting-interview
  3. The best at what ? drinking beer and singing ?.....no problem if that's what constitutes " good fans "....fill ya boots and all that. Ive been a West Ham fan my entire life i know what gallows humour is all about......but celebrating defeat i find bizarre sorry. Im not trying to piss on anyones shoes i simply wanted to know how Irish folk felt towards probably their greatest player of all time and it seems many dont hold him in particularly high esteem because he wanted to win too much.......which kind of answers my question Francie but cheers anyway. It's funny how you notice thing an
  4. Gangstas put pictures of themselves up for public viewing on Instagram. These guys aren't hunters or dogmen they're are only involved because it's illegal. The probably learned all about it online.

  6. I'd bring in a law on hunting with hounds like they have in France were they hunt Stag, Wild Boar, Fox and Hare. I'd bring the Irish law on Hare coursing. I'd have the same laws on diggings as they have in France, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Finland, Poland etc. where they can dig as they like. I'd be pushing it I suppose if I brought in the Spanish and French laws to allow bull fighting? And I won't even mention that they're free to match Cocks, cause that's mad. I wouldn't keep the Scotish or English laws that banned hunting with dogs, I'd get rid of them for sure.
  7. ulster is going nowhere mate, our vote was split, a hundred thousand vote difference really, and a border poll here will not be successful Ireland already has 1/3 of Ulster and gets on just fine, has a robust economy and will benefit again from a Brexit. I'm not sure the UK can afford to support 6 counties as a separate country without the EU funding that has been pouring into the region since the good Friday agreement. The Brexit was a great result for Nationalists, in Ireland. At the time of the Good Friday Agreement Ian paisley demanded that the Irish concede sovereignty to 6 counties. It
  8. People campaigned to remain on the basis that the EU promotes and protects human rights. All I've ever seen is people using the european court of human rights to abuse the system. http://www.independent.ie/irish-news/courts/isil-suspect-loses-court-bid-to-apply-for-asylum-34831962.html

  11. only the B+F box is designed for hardship. everything else was designed to be kept inside a jacket pocket and be used a very few times in it's lifetime. Take good care of them, keep mud and dirt and rain out of them and they'll all last, but it's certainly not what they were made for.
  12. Garmin have a place in the UK http://www.garmin.com/en-GB/company/contact/
  13. A few of the flock.
  14. That Vet gave 2 options, PTS or Spay, there's always another option in these things thats easy to forget. Do nothing. Wait and see. Most people don't think clearly under pressure, probably no one does. So it's easy to make mistakes when a bit stressed. With a prolapse the main risks are infection and inability to pass urine, antibiotics and a catheter would manage. This link is very, very useful, if interested. http://www.merckvetmanual.com/mvm/reproductive_system/reproductive_diseases_of_the_female_small_animal/vaginal_hyperplasia_in_small_animals.html You can still breed from
  15. 2 weeks holiday in the sun is enough for us Irish. It'll be nice to get back to a bit of rain and being able to relax and enjoy England going out at the quarter final stage.
  16. I'd imagine if you're already pulling the piss out of their boiler suits and crappy dogs you're better off staying where you are. No point in going out there to tell them they're doing it wrong. "When in Rome"
  17. But it looks like it wouldn't be athletic enough to get out over that gate.
  18. RIP A great human being, flawed like us all, not unbeaten, but an inspiration to anyone open to inspiration. You can say Ali, couldn't beat Louis, Tyson or Johnson. But on paper there was NO WAY he could beat Foreman. He believed he could and he did. "These hands can cash any cheque my mouth writes"
  19. No one jumped in over the fence to talk with the gentle protective 400lb gorilla??? Funny that. Just got their camera phones out. In other news today a mother and civil partner were found guilty of murdering her 2 year old son.http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-edinburgh-east-fife-36417415 It's SO facebook sad about the gorilla
  20. Keeping ourselves ignorant doesn't help the dogs. There's plenty info. freely available that we don't need to rely on rumour or old habits. Not as entertaining as reading THL but it's worth a look , It's worth really looking at little details here and specifics. http://www.merckvetmanual.com/mvm/emergency_medicine_and_critical_care.html Slight tangent, but if a dog can, give it electrolytes or at least water to drink as soon as you can after a dig. Go easy with the heat and heat lamps for a dog after a tough time. "Frequently, more than one type of shock is present,
  21. Antibiotics don't work on the dog, they don't become less affective the more times a dog has them. They've no real relationship with the dog. Antibiotics interact with bacteria only. And it's is an interaction, ineffective AB's treatment plays into the hands of the infection. The danger is giving the wrong antibiotic, the wrong dose, for the wrong duration.
  22. anti inflammatories and pain killers are equally important.
  23. My sister worked for many years on various children's wards at hospitals around Ireland looking after seriously sick kids. She said Bono wasn't an uncommon sight visiting kids and their families who'd contacted him. Said he never had PR or minders or handlers or anyone with him. what a cnut
  24. Wow the grand mother looks like a proper worker, going out now to check the hens for teeth. Keep breeding from workers like that, more the merrier. B
