Hello, dear
I would like to see them fight to the death and for there to be only one Mr Tayto at last (it will be Northern Mr Tayto because he is the one who isn't a beady-eyed, sanctimonious psychopath who harasses people for looking at porn in the privacy of their own god drat bedrooms :mad:)

Hello, dear
I mean it's maybe a stretch to call it a theme park but it's a factory with a bit of it done up with a castle-themed visitor section where you can look at all crisps bein made

but that should be excitement enough for anyone imo

Wow pathetic. Doesn't even have a zoo (theatre of animal cruelty) or rollercoaster. Why does a crisp factory need these things you ask? Sherrup ye tick, that's why

To be honest, that sounds a lot cooler than the Tayto Park.

The lack of company is kinda nice honestly, christmas is hard because you're under a lot of pressure to perform happiness even if you don't feel it, so it's nice for there to be a little less pressure this year.

how is it you know so much about irish stuff if i may ask

also that's not quite accurate: northern mr tayto v.s. southern mr tayto is enough to galvanise all northerners whatever their backgrounds

Possibly by threatening to depth charge beaufort's dyke and blow the island out into the middle of the atlantic.

Which honestly I think a lot of people on both sides would support.

(I initially wrote this post getting my dykes confused and wrote offa's dyke instead which would be entirely par for the course with this government if they ended up trying to depth charge that.

All in good time, but for now students from Northern Ireland can still access the Erasmus programme through the Republic Of Ireland. :science:

Ah the time honoured tradition of using shortcuts and work arounds to access things.

If you were a practicing barrister in the Republic and wanted to also be able to practice in England it would take something like two to three years to earn the qualifications to do so.
However there was a loop hole where if you wanted to gain accreditation in the North it took like six weeks. Then you could get accreditation from the North to England in only a year.

Someone got me a big bottle of amaretto for crimbo.

No idea what I'm going to do with it but it was a nice thought. I will put it in the pile with the rum they got me last year, and the several years worth of port I haven't drunk yet. I know someone who likes it so I might give it to them.

Mix it with coke and you get an alcoholic drink that is almost indistinguishable from Dr Pepper.

I don't mind it with milk I just barely drink. Might see if I can mix it with some cream perhaps and make a sort of almond cream.
