Is he going for the traditional turkey and ham (appropriate if he does, I suppose) or is he going for a goose, beef, chicken. Any further info?

Acording to the grapevine Roddy Collins was spotted in town today.

He is also believed to have been in Jackson's buying himself a nice new pair of slacks - you know, the type you'd wear to your sister's wedding or for market day.

This is now leading to rumours he is to be appointed the new Harps Boss

Collins was seen with a Turkey under his arm, when asked "where did you get the turkey?" the turkey replied that Collins was passing through on his way from a job interview in Derry and droped into the local butchers!!

Sorry:o

Steve, its McElhinney's your thinking about. Just the spot for a fine collection of pointy shoes, trousers that are too short, tweed jacket, checked shirts and other culchie attire.

Jacksons is a hotel.

Please God Roddy wasn't anywhere near Derry....

Aye - like potato sacks are up there with the price of Gucci handbags, Jimmy Choo shoes and Armani suits.

They give them away free with a pile of potatoes, fer feck sake.... ;)

Though wouldn't surprise me if you money-struck Free Staters happily paid hand over fist to get yer hands on them for nostalgia value...

:D

Two weeks in Bundoran ?? I've never spent more than 2 minutes in the place.

We've got an airport in Derry you know, so we don't have to spend time in the schticks any more.....

Roddy for Harps !! Actually, Harps are my second team so I wouldn't wish him on anyone.

:D

Oi leave the Costa del Bun alone! My mum's family went there on their holidays every year in the 40's & 50's. My cousins and siblings & I went for many the short break to their caravan there when we were young and now my kids summer wouldnt be complete without a day or 2 in Fundoran! Its tacky, its expensive, its a dive but its tradition!

Bundoran's been by-passed for decades.

Thankfully the roads network has finally caught-up with the rest of society....
