I decided yesterday that the (potential) move to Canada will come at the end of a RTW trip taking in South America way and Oz.

Gastric, get me on a Coldie!

She asked me where I was from and would I vote for their local candidate, so I told her I was from Limerick, she replied "oh, I'm sorry". So I shut the door in her face. In retrospect, what I should have done was demanded an apology from the candidate.

I think it was the seemingly genuine and paradoxically pleasant sense of sympathy in her tone, rather than any intent to insult being apparent, that had me more amused than fuming.

Happened to catch another episode of "デイリーサッカーニューズFOOT!", (Daily soccer news football)", and they have a section called STFC, or Small Town FC. This was installment 14 (never seen any of the previous 13), and featured Tobermore United. Talked about the floods of a few years ago, and subsequent struggles, but the reason for their inclusion became clear when they spent time talking about how it was the only NI club for which George Best had ever played competitively. Their chairman, a guy called Beatty, said 'he had a reputation for not turning up, or playing badly, but....ah....it didn't really matter.'

Oops, must have mixed it up with the Japanese version of the Nigerian bank scam I'm working on.

Saw on the Beeb that Iain Banks has announced he only has months to live. Very sad news; one of the finest writers of recent times.

BonnieShels doesn't like Football Special. Possibly one of the finest soft drinks ever to hit the market. I dislike this.

I had about 6 bottles of the stuff in my fridge for years after a Killybegs friend brought it to a houseparty as a mixer. Ye are a different breed.

**DannyInvincible** · 03/04/2013, 10:55 PM

My sister used to live on that stuff. I've never actually tried it myself, strangely.

You are an enigma Danny.

That's where you went wrong.
