Holidayz – Loma

I’m on holidays for the next 2 weeks so don’t be surprised if there’s little or not action in the coming weeks!!! Slán!

Funny Pix

Just a few pix to keep you ammused: George Bin Laden Geroge Bush & his pal Saddam No more Bush A new kind of spam Football hooligans starting young You’re still an ugly goat

Longford Town vs Vaduz

Bugger … Vaduz have just gone 0-3 up. (livescore.com) Update: Bhuel, sin é! The Town pulled two back in the last 5 minutes but it finished 2-3 to Vaduz, 2-4 on aggregate. The Town did ok though!

Irish teams in Europe

More importantly Longford Town also have a toughie, they need to pull back a 1 goal defecit against FC Vaduz, UEFA Cup [...]

People visiting Europe are advised to “take measures to avoid being bitten by infected mosquitoes”. That should be easy because by EU law all infected mosquitoes must wear a badge with “WNV Carrier” [...]

Frisky Vikings

It seems that Norwegians are getting a bit touchy feely from watching porn in hotel rooms and in many cases are ‘accosting’ female staff. Hotel staff are pressing for a ban on porn in hotels!
