Mr A, I'm converted! Sign me up to the Church of Acornvilla!
Yeah this happened about 10 minutes walk from Limerick City centre Danny, its a dodgy spot, but the council made a bit of an effort to clean it up of late, installed more lights, cleaned up the shrubbery and rubbish, as well as most importantly, bricked up the windows and doors of a very popular crack den, so antisocial behaviour has been a bit less common of late, but in the 4 or so years that I've lived here, I've lost count of the amount of times I've heard of students being robbed and especially the female ones being sexually assaulted. (One of my friends knocked out a junky that put a knife to his face). I pretty much as a rule don't let my girlfriend walk through there alone. The more I think about it the more glad I am that I did it anyway and probably would again if in the same situation, Its nice to know I'm not a totally wuss when it comes down to a bit of danger, It'll be interesting to see if they show up again during the week..
As for the rest of ye, I have a low low subscription fee to my religion of just €50,000 euro a month, I promise you an afterlifetime supply of bitches and ho's, swimming lessons as well as protection from the devil, if he is: a) a teenager b) fat and c) on a bike.
Art wise I'm a few months away from finishing my 4th year in LSAD, some of you will remember giving me constant abuse for spelling it collage a few years ago :D Studing printmaking, I print (etching,drypoint,woodblock mostly) as well as draw pencil pens, charcoal, all that good stuff. I don't have a particularly up to date online portfolio at the minute but I can link my Deviant account which is about 1/2 years out of date if you wana see my older stuff Dan. A behance is under construction!
In other news Eeamon Zayed now follows me on twitter, this is about as close to fame as I'll ever get.
Nice one; good luck with it. Sure, send me a link (via PM if you wish).Quote:

Thought the show had gone very stale in the last few years; too much self-referencing smart-assery, too many of the same old guests.
It would seem odd that they would head to Today FM if it was announced this way.Quote:

Aren't today FM owned by the same guy as newstalk? Can't see them going there if that's the case
Ger Gilroy in the hotseat tonight, but I can't listen in.
Yeah. Both owned by CommuniCorp/Denis O'Brien.
No way they're heading to Today FM.
Gilroy said at the start of tonight's show it was to do with the lads wanting to start the show at 6pm.
I can see them at 2FM yet in a revamped rte schedule.
Me & Nigel are facebook official <3
He got you too?Quote:

O'Brien shifted Tom Dunne from Today FM to Newstalk to boost its midmorning ratings, and I think there has been occasional movement of production and admin staff. Both stations are based in the same building as well. But it does seem since the news broke that it's a real split, not a fabricated one. It it hasn't been acromonious, I wouldn't be surprised to see O'Brien try to keep them rather than lose them to a rival. You know, the same way Mancini stockpiles strikers!Quote:

You'll be glad to hear I attended the re-arranged presentation last night, so this'll be the last you'll hear of it. :pQuote:

A driver's view from inside his lorry was shown and not one of the cyclists by the lorry's side could be seen from inside the lorry or even in his mirror.
The presentation is usually intended for an audience of up to 30 but I was informed that I was the only person they've ever accommodated with a personal meeting like that, so have to say I appreciated that as there was no duty upon them to re-arrange. I also expressed my concerns about the stretch of road by which I was using the pavement and they appeared to take them on board. All in all, a commendable endeavour and much more worthwhile than forking out the £30.
The force of Derry is strong in this one!Quote:

Google have updated (some of) their Street View images of Manchester. The updated images of Oxford Road were taken in September 2012.Quote:

Just something I've been wondering; what do you call this part of the sole of a pair of trainers?

Does it have a name?
On Temperance St too. Can't even blame the drink.Quote:

Prostitutes on GoogleMaps... shoe parts... What are you doing man?
Also can anyone attest as to what the hell might have been going through the head of your man whilst getting that hand-job and seeing the Google camera car coming towards him?
For anyone who has never seen the Google car...
