I'm very serious.
Might go up tomorrow for the club finals so I might be able to tell you how it's progressing.
AFAIK they'll be selling off bits of Hill 16 as souvenirs.

I was told they might have part of the hill open by the end of the summer the corner bit by the cusack stand, mind you i was told this by member's of the local gaa team round my way, who are more used to seeing pint's going over the bar then point's, arr well if none of the hill will be open by the end of the summer then i'll have to make do with a ticket for either the canal, Hogan or Cusack stand's if my third wish come's true, or even go on the hill with me steel toe cap boot's and hard hat, Peader enjoy yerself tomorrow, tell me how it's all progressing.

There's a couple of mechanical diggers and a crane on the site and a few heaps of earth. Nothing like a foundation or anything yet. Even if you were standing on the site where Hill 16 once lay, you couldn't see the game as it's walled off from the pitch.

Well done to Newtownshandrum.
Great game and they played top class hurling.
The football was dire!

Noddy is a good book too, but don't see many people suggesting that countries should be modelled on Toytown...

Are you sure Bertie and Co aren't trying?

I suppose the obvious counterargument is that the US and the western world do not practice pure capitalism, they have all these socialist concepts like unemployment benefit woven in. So we haven't seen pure capitalism at work either, and really it's a very very good system and you just gotta wait 'till it's put into effect properly to see just how good it is.

Because the capitalists would lose control of a completely capitalist society. It couldn't be sustained. Bit obvious, don't ye think? Not that the present system is sustainable either mind. The gap between rich and poor is growing.....it's only a matter of time.
