Ireland’s most unromantic man is finally discovered - SEE POLL

jacers...I'm only messin'you are quite welcome to join Anto and I on Patrick's bridge..Here!! pull up chair..I mean a page of de Echo. We'll even find ya a dog. Begging was good yesterday,so we brought a few better quality bottles of plonk. We are going to the south of France for our holidays this summer ,you can come along too..We have found the vineyards a rich source of free wine. How bad is that!! ;))

Apologies to my brethern sirpeter and antoman... Yes, I know Cha & Miah are Corkonian legends... just couldn't help a laugh about you guys on Paddy's bridge w/ yr dogs and the Ecco shoo-in, sorry Echo shoe-in.. Aahhh! Dem flippin' typos!

jacers..Don't knock Cha & Miah..They were two famous characters in Cork known for their wit when it came to all things Cork..Though I will say they would not look out of place on Patrick's bridge.

@ JerryLynch (what a fantastic pro-Semitic screen name!) - It’s not "auld" sod... "Auld" is Scottish, not Irish. Find a word to rhyme with “Oul’ Sod”. I await, with whiskey-laden baited breath, for your better soul-insired, I mean sirpetered inspired po, po.. p-p-p-po-etery.. btw sirpeter & anto just kindly passed me their bottle on the bridge an’ I took a smiling thenku slurp– Oh no! – *Bleurgh!* - ‘twas full of their slimey Cha & Miah dogs’ pisses!! #What kin of an’ auld fool am.. *aiai aiai*... Oiiiii...??#

I used to give my late wife a present of a kiss every day I woke up beside her, saying, “Smooches, Love... Isn’t a grand day! Aren’t you lucky to be alive and to be my first wife?” That kept her in check.

antoman..Cha and Miah!! You know they don't do tongue in cheek on IC. Cheers for de Echo and the mutt though. At least it won't depress me..Oh Look!! A train wreak..150 killed..I'll just send that page off to IC.It will cheer up this place to no end. They can spend hours commenting on how the Irish train driver was probably drunk.

Having been with my lady(who sometimes gets flowers because I feel she is having a bad day) for over 50 years, I think these guys are jerks who do not deserve to be in the company real women. Let them run home and live out their lives with the only person who can or wants to really "love" them, their moms.

Would this be considered, "A little of the auld sod for the auld broad?"

@sirpeter-we could be the new Cha and Miah. LOL!

sirpeter..here's a copy of de Echo ta sit on and a little dog.Welcome to Patricks Bridge.

antoman.. *whispers* I'm never leaving Cork..I don't care if I have to move onto Patrick's bridge next to ya. A homeless wino who accidentally smashed his full bottle of plonk,would have a better sense of humour then this lot.

..and these broads are still with their husbands??

Next Christmas, when Mr. Shepard does not buy Mrs. Shepard a present, he'll be able to say, "why should I buy her anything, she didn't use what I bought here last Christmas".

it depends how old and sick she may be. hope he has ordered an appropriate maker expressing his caring, at least.

I hope the plot was not on the lay away plan.
