:D :D I was typing hurridly so I made bo!!ix of that remark.
No I meant the sheep first :D then eat the liver, just about to pop the meat in the pan!!
Of course, I am only joking about the sheep. You believe me don't ya??
Seriously, joking about shep shagging is fun but in reality I'd cheerfully cut the balls of anyone shagging animals. Aren't there plenty of georgeous ladies out there so what's the point?? I just don't get it?? :confused:
Jesus Noel..My auld man is presently looking for two young lambs that have strayed from the field.I hope to fcuk you have not gone from a very prominent, extremely poplar teacher to a sheep thief who shags the poor devils before eating their liver.
You can relax FearBeag, I'd never steal my ex-pupil's dad's lambs. At that age, anyway, they'd be below the age of consent. :D :DQuote:

Right lads(and ladies), the first trip t-shirts are now up. The are all double sides, so if you click on them, you can see the front and back designs. Some are in plain English, the others with a few accents
I know these seem pricey, but that is the cost of being able to produce in small quantities. Also, the skinny tees for women appear dearer for some reason. I am making zero profit on the t-shirts, just want any who wants one to get it. They are posted from Germany and take a while to get here, so don't leave it too late to get here
I will be uploading a few more designs in the next hours and days(and when I failed my uni exams I hope you thank me).
If anyone wants the same design on a hoody etc give me a shout and I can get that sorted as well
Hope to see Torshavn covered in these shirts :D
Make sure and scroll on to Page 3 of the shop to see the "Feck Muffins, Eat Puffin" shirts
All ideas welcom
You didn't manage to get the islands imposed? That'd be cool!
An eagle eyed punter has PMed me to say that there is no option for Irish customers to register. I have emailed the firm and I reckon it is just an oversight as in all their FAQ material they mention that they post to all EU states.
I will update you when they get back to me with the info

I was trying to colour in the Islands in green white and orange but was having real problems matching the green with the green of the shirt
I can superimpose the islands no bother, any preferred text with it?
Grand for me anyway.Quote:

Anyone who has any photoshop skills and has a free hour or two will be able to sort all this out
Any volunteers?
[QUOTE=fenabhoy]Only cos the entire population of the former make even the average Norrie look like a benign OAP....... but are a million times more interesting! :
That explains it so :eek: You must be from Roscommon then!! :D - pardon my innocence, I'm not au fait with you young pups' lingo but ...er... what's a Norrie? :o Is it some sort of name for a Northerner?
By the way did you see the Sky programme on Sky tonight? - OAPs on asbo. The same folks were also featured in the G2 section of The Guardian last week. so, young man, a word of warning, near OAPs like myself and OAPS will be round to your house where we'll have a group whinge until all hours of the morning!!!!
You'll be driven mad with all the moanin' :D
A tourist map of Torshavn arrived in the house today, with a personal mark for where our aparment is,talk about service :D
Your normal touristy guide, with a load of ads for museums and shops etc. Faroese knitwear appears to very popular and thus far I have seen ads for Burger King, Pizza 67, Nantong Chinese and a number of other restaurants
Not with Greengate by any chance? Got the same thing with them.Quote:

Irish Football Fans think it is too expensive to visit the Faroes
Thousands of Irish football fans were rumoured to visit the Faroes in connection with the football match between the Faroes and Ireland on the 8th of June. However, many of the Irish fans have found it to expensive to travel to the Faroes.
Ingigerð á Trøðni, Director of the Tourist Information Centre in Tórshavn, has gathered information in connection with the game. She believes the numbers initially mentioned have been too high. She expects about 1000 Irish people to visit the island in connection with the game.
Ísak Mikladal from the Faroese Football Association confirmed that all 900 tickets set aside for the Irish fans have been sold.
The football stadium in Tórshavn, Tórsvøllur, accommodates 5800 spectators. The FA has 2000 tickets left for the game.
Yeah, Heidi did the same for us. She marked out her office, as we have to collect the keys to our house once we arrive, and of course the house itself.Quote:

The price of a pint is similar to Denmark, so you're talking anything up to a £5. An ordinary Carlsberg is 4,6%, but you can also get the Gold variety which is about 5.8%.
Hey, hey! Now we're talking! :D Is this the 'Elephant' beer? Remember that being halfway between an 'Export' and the 'Special Brew,' known in my part of the world as the 'Bob Marley After Shave.'Quote:

I can't stand the Carlsberg that they serve here but when I drink it abroad it's always much nicer, maybe it's brewed in a different way or something. Anyway if they have that on draft it won't be too bad. Somehow I don't think I'll be able to get my hands on lovely ice cold Miller.....Jaysus I'm beginning to sound like Duffman.Quote:

I would say you have hit the nail on the head, somewhere between 1 and 1.5kQuote:

any one know what kind of trip Ray Tracey was offerin?

There's another thread on this forum for numbers of people going.
Also a thread on bobble hats.
Even though by our standards it's a relatively small number of fans travelling it will seem as though we're everywhere as the bulk of us will all be condensed around the one area.Quote:

Im really looking forward to it. This day 2 weeks, We should hopefully be out sight seeing (all going well :eek: )
