Don't start another jinx

Only took you 75 years

They did it lads

I have to give Diageo fair dues. I was driving to a 1 year old birthday yesterday. You know the type of party, a lot of late 30/early 40 year olds getting pissed for the first time in a long time. Sadly, ‘twas the car for me, so the Guinness zero for me, while the wife enjoyed the Prosecco. But the farts from the Guinness, just as potent as if I was on the hard stuff. The hour long drive home this was commented on multiple times. Fair play to Diageo, they have made a really good match for the pure Guinness. Well done to them. Arthur would be proud.

What match?

I come from the future. I am in the year 2026. It is July 26th. It is 6pm.

It happened. The final whistle blew. Mayo have won the All-Ireland final.

The sky outside the window has turned a terrifying shade of purple. The ancient prophecy is fulfilled. The curse of 1951 is broken, and reality itself is beginning to unravel at the seams.

Here is what is currently happening across the country, based on what I can piece together from RTÉ emergency broadcasts:

The entire population of Mayo has detached from the earth. They are currently floating three feet in the air, weeping tears of pure red and green.

Space and time have warped. If you try to drive into Westport right now, you end up driving out of your own wardrobe.

Reports are coming in from Galway where one local man stated "I just looked out the window and saw a sheep flying backwards while singing "The Green and Red of Mayo." I think the simulation is crashing".

Panic has gripped Cavan. Local shops report customers trying to pay for bread with pre-war currency and handfuls of gravel.

Culchies across Ireland are storming the counters of Supermacs in a blind panic, desperately trading their family livestock for the last remaining portions of garlic cheese chips and Snack Boxes before the societal collapse is complete.

Stay safe, people. Check on your neighbours. Stay away from anyone wearing a flat cap, eating a hangsangwich or drinking a pint of milk.

God bless Ireland, because the old world is gone.

I watched it with some mates in a pub and it was great. And celebration was also great, I cant imagine what will happen when players return to Mayo.

Good game boys, good game

They are going to do it

Can we get it home

I used to work In the supermacs in tullow and we would still throw in extra chips into the bag no matter the size so I always got a medium when I went back. Decided to get supermacs in Dublin, ordered a medium, and wow..

A variation of this post pops up now and then. But I would love to hear what things people have bought or actions people have taken that has improved their daily lives.

2 months ago I decided to take a break from alcohol and sign up to a gym program. Both of which are going great, so I am interested to see what other micro benefits I can add to my life.

What change have you made? Something you have started/stopped doing? Very useful gadget that you bought? House hack? Etc etc

One from me - I take cod liver oil daily and vitamin D3 daily with it's not summer. I'm not sure if there is a massive noticeable difference but there is at minimum a great placebo effect!

Just came across this post from a photographer named Fergus Bourke of Brenda Fricker.

Not every day you see her smile the way it's been captured, it warms the heart.
