Good man. I'd like to see those. I have a fascination with football grounds and I'd love to see more of the old grounds that have now disappeared. I've been to many a ground that now no longer exists and it's very rarely that I am enthralled by the new ground.Quote:

To the frightening as from the front I couldn't see this car and so while trying to stumble across the drift I encountered it.

Only a true Harps fan would stop to appreciate the sheep in the midst of it all.
So the rumours are true about you liking sheep then ?Quote:

And consider it the highlight of the fun an frolic's had during this particular snowfall. Note I am outside the fence and the sheep are the other side. :DQuote:

On a side note, in my school days I worked for a part time farmer on the foothills of the Ox Mountain's, Co. Sligo. A nice old part of the world too and many a happy summer I spent there. One day we were parked up and the guy I was working for, been a very often serious ma, pointed to a shed in the middle of a field with sheep in it. He mentioned the fact the particular farmer was well known for sheep bothering. Just at that moment, and in the distance the farmer emerged from the shed and the sheep scattered. It was timely and did nothing to cause me doubts on his suggestion.

My local football club whom I only came across for the first time recently seem to have had better times
